Bitget, a leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, is launching the Blockchain4Her (B4H) Ambassador Program to address the gender gap in publicly secure funding opportunities for women. The initiative aims to empower women to become ambassadors and catalysts for change, encouraging more individuals to join the Web3 space.

The program, driven by Bitget's findings on the gender gap and limited opportunities for women in the industry, seeks to bridge this divide by welcoming exceptional women leaders. Three prominent female individuals, including Tess Hau, founder of Tess Ventures, Yevheniia Broshevan, Co-founder of Hacken, and Cecilia Hsueh, CEO of Layer 2 project Morph, have already joined as the first batch of ambassadors.

The B4H Ambassador Program will feature several initiatives aimed at fostering a supportive and inclusive environment for women in Web3:

Gracy Chen, Managing Director of Bitget, emphasized the importance of promoting women's involvement in the blockchain space, stating, "Women are the most underused resource of the global economy in practically every industry. We are determined to promote their involvement in the blockchain space by opening up opportunities for them to join the industry and develop."

The Ambassadors expressed their enthusiasm and high expectations for contributing to the Blockchain4Her initiative:

Tess Hau remarked, "Blockchain4Her's mission resonates with Tess Ventures' commitment to supporting women developers and leaders in Web3. As an Ambassador, I advocate for blockchain's power in promoting financial literacy and inclusion for women, and I'm eager to contribute to this initiative for positive change."

Yevheniia Broshevan highlighted, "Achieving widespread Web3 adoption requires equal opportunities and openness for all. I'm honored to support initiatives addressing these disparities, as they propel us toward a world free from barriers and judgments."

Cecilia Hsueh emphasized, "The increasing presence of female leaders in the male-dominated blockchain industry marks progress towards acceptance and inclusivity. Their contribution not only adds diversity but also makes complex blockchain technologies more accessible."

Through the B4H Ambassador Program, Bitget aims to empower women to take on leadership roles and make meaningful contributions to the Web3 community, ultimately fostering a more inclusive and diverse industry landscape.
