1.3%. That's how much of Danish startup capital goes to companies with female founders. Add a man to the founding team, and it rises to 6.1%. The rest goes to all-male teams.
What makes this striking is that startups with female founders generate on average 25% higher revenue per krone invested. The talent and the ambition are clearly there. The capital just isn't following yet.
When fewer women build companies, we all miss out on great talent, growth and competitiveness.
So we're proud that our CEO, Camilla Kloss Fenneberg, has been named one of Danish Chamber of Commerce's 25 female entrepreneurs to know in 2026, selected from around 600 nominations!💥
"I hope this recognition - and the spotlight on female entrepreneurs - inspires more women to take the leap into entrepreneurship," says Camilla.
Recognition like this matters because visibility creates role models, and role models create more female founders.
At EvodiaBio, Camilla leads a team using precision fermentation to make natural aroma for breweries, so beer can be brewed with more stable supply, greater cost efficiency and a markedly lower climate footprint. We launched our product Yops® commercially in January 2025 and today work with customers across Europe, the US, Canada and Brazil.
