Published in the Australian Financial Review on 4 December 2024. See the original article here.

Launched by federal Minister for Women and Finance Katy Gallagher in Sydney on Wednesday, the Future Generation Women’s fund has nabbed $100 million in seed funding from Nicola and Andrew Forrest’s Minderoo Foundation.
