Women's VC fund reaching critical stage

A new crowd-funded venture capital fund for women entrepreneurs is gathering support but organisers say the next four weeks will be crucial. SheEO is an initative seeking 500 women to contribute one thousand dollars each to create a funding pool for five winning female businesses. So far, 325 so-called women investors have signed up to contribute. One of them is Auckland business woman Kirsty Reynolds, who tells Kathryn why she's compelled to be involved.
