@beyouinhd: BUSINESS | Breaking Barriers in Venture Capital Halimah DeOliveira of Brooklyn, New York is redefining access to capital through EmpowHer Con, positioning the platform among the rare 2% of organizations that actively distribute venture funding. Through a live pitch competition and intentional investment opportunities, the event creates real pathways for women entrepreneurs to secure funding, scale their ventures, and build generational wealth. After 10 years in business, she is now launching the Halimah DeOliveira Foundation, an initiative focused on equipping Muslim women in business with access to venture capital, education, mentorship, and funding opportunities rooted in ethical and values aligned wealth building. The foundation aims to close the gap by preparing women to become fundable, investable, and positioned to lead in spaces where they have historically been underrepresented. This milestone marks a shift from conversation to execution while setting a new standard for impact driven business events across the country. Congrats to our finalists!
