Introducing Elizabeth Street Capital

Designed to provide early-stage women entrepreneurs in the United States with access to low-cost capital, mentoring support and networking opportunities to grow their businesses, creating communities of women entrepreneurs.

Launching with an investment of $10 million in capital from Bank of America and funding for operating expenses. The program will initially support women entrepreneurs in Boston, Charlotte, Las Vegas, New York, Philadelphia and San Francisco, but will expand to additional markets over the next two years.

Elizabeth Street refers to the New York City location of Tory Burch's first boutique, the launching pad for a business that has grown into a global brand with nearly 120 stores and a presence in more than 50 countries around the world. The name speaks to the hard work and passion that drive successful entrepreneurial ventures and to the enormous potential of women-owned small businesses.
