MEDIA RELEASE: Canadian Women’s Chamber of Commerce Launches Flip the Script Investment Readiness Skills Training Programs

TORONTO, ON – Tuesday July 28, 2026 –  Canada doesn’t have a shortage of investment-worthy women entrepreneurs. It has a shortage of women who have been given the same opportunities to prepare for investment as everyone else.

Today the Canadian Women’s Chamber of Commerce (CanWCC) announced the public launch of Flip the Script, an investment readiness skills training program that helps founders sharpen their fundraising skills before they ever step into an investor meeting.

Using an AI-powered simulation platform, Flip the Script gives entrepreneurs the opportunity to practise responding to challenging investor questions, strengthen their messaging, and build the confidence that comes from preparation.

« Women founders are already proving every day that they build exceptional and very profitable businesses, » said Catherine Adare, Chief Operating Officer of the Canadian Women’s Chamber of Commerce. « Flip the Script gives them yet another competitive advantage against the inherent bias in the funding ecosystem. When you’ve had the chance to practise, refine your message and prepare for difficult conversations, you show up ready to own the room. »

Originally offered through a number of pilot programs with hundreds of women participating in funded cohorts, Flip the Script is now available for direct registration, making CanWCC’s investment readiness training accessible to founders who are ready to accelerate their growth.

« Women entrepreneurs are resilient, resourceful and eminently investable, » Adare added. « We want more founders walking into funding conversations exuding that they belong in that investment portfolio, and walking out with the capital they need to take their businesses to the next level. »

Registration is now open for entrepreneurs who are ready to strengthen their investment readiness skills, unlock new funding opportunities, and grow their pitch confidence.
