Welcome to our project

Capital Raise Platform

We are building an ecosystem for women to raise capital for their businesses. This platform will tokenize their opportunities on the blockchain and allow them to raise capital from local and international investors. Become a pop_girleens and join our tribe.

Nagel Impact Fund

We will then build an impact fund of women entrepreneurs that have gone through our capital raise process and believe in sending the elevator back down to help the next generation of women entrepreneurs. These funds will then be used to do small pre-seed loans to young female entrepreneurs.

EcoSystem of Support

We want to help boost the global economy by $5 Trillion by supporting Women as entrepreneurs.

The problem:

Unequal access to financial support plays a significant role in the gender gap, particularly for women starting new enterprises. According to a Boston Consulting Group analysis of 2018 data from MassChallenge.

We provide:

Digital tokenization platform to raise debt or equity in their businesses
Increased access to international investors.
Increased liquidity of shares.
Easier access to buy and invest in female-driven private companies.
24/7 trading.
Fully transparent and less error-prone.

Marketplace:

Traditional financial securities such as stocks, bonds and other real world assets are increasingly moving to blockchain infrastructure. This happens due to the many benefits of this technology. A security on the blockchain is termed a tokenized security or a security token. Shares and bonds are digitized and the online trading of these digital securities becomes possible without relying on any middlemen. World Economic Forum predicts that 10% of the global GDP ($7.8 trillion) will be stored on the blockchain by 2027.

Industries we focus on

Affordable Housing
Emerging Markets
Small Businesses

Platform:

Through our platform, company shares can be digitized and issued as tokens on the blockchain, either as debt or equity, depending on the Founder’s requirements. A digital share certificate will be stored within each token. Each token will represent one share in the company. The platform will ensure that only verified and approved investors can buy tokens.

Raise Capital:

We will use NFT’s to raise capital for setup costs and our first drop is called #pop_girls on discord.

Meet the Team

The Nagel Impact Fund was established by a team that is devoted to helping women in business. This highly experienced crew created the marvelous world of Nagel Impact Fund.

Carmen Toal

My previous experience as a Project Manager with BHP exposed me to large corporate thinking. Owning the first female box manufacturing business in Australia opened my eyes to the struggle of small business and how to win from that position. Being born in apartheid South Africa and watching my colored parents struggle honed my empathy and belief for social equity. Raising capital to fund a cannabis real estate deal and the challenges associated with that, encouraged the formation of this fund.

FAQ

What is an NFT?

Non-Fungible Tokens are unique, easily verifiable digital assets that can represent items such as GIFs, images, videos, music albums, and more. Anything that exists online can be purchased as an NFT, theoretically.

Why would I want to own your NFT? Can I make money on it?

We recommend you buy our NFT to support our project. The more women that we help to raise capital for their business, helps grow the global economy by $5 Trillion dollars. More information on the situation can be found here, https://hbr.org/2019/10/the-trillion-dollar-opportunity-in-supporting-female-entrepreneurs

Another reason to buy our NFT is for its emotional value and because you like the art, which isn’t so different from physical objects.

The other reason is because you think it’s valuable...and will only increase in value. And yes, you can make money off of an NFT by buying and reselling it for more.

How do can I buy your NFT?

There will be a pre-sale on our website and if you join our discord, you will be kept up to date as to the drop dates. Join us here, https://discord.gg/2YjZErjFe7 When we do go live, it will be on NFT Go or similar platform and the dates for that will be on discord.

We need you! / Blurb from an article by Jesse Wegman 28 January 2022

On the last night of March 1776, Abigail Adams sat down and drafted a letter to her husband, John, who was off serving in the Continental Congress, helping shape what would soon become the Declaration of Independence. "By the way", she wrote, "in the new code of laws which I suppos it will be necessary for you to make, I desire you would remember the ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the husbands. Remember all men would be tyrants if they could. If particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to foment a rebelion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice or representation." John Adams and his colleagues didn't heed her warning, but we can.

Even if you are political junkie, there's a good chance you didn't realize that the United States Constitution grew 58 words longer this week. Those words, which begin, "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denies or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex", are the text of the Equal Rights Amendment. Section 3 of the amendment states that it takes effect two years after its ratification, which happened on Jan. 27, 2020, Amendement went into force on Thursday. American women are, at long last, equal to men in the eyes of the law. Hallelujah. Source: https://vanow.org/news/articles/why-can-t-we-make-women-s-equality-the-law-of-the-land
