Although entrepreneurship is often held up as the answer to economic inequality and a promise of social mobility, women remain severely underrepresented among venture-backed founders. Less than three percent of venture capital is invested in companies with a female CEO, and only fifteen percent of VC-backed firms have a female on the executive team. Existing research has largely focused on how competence biases affect the evaluation of female entrepreneurs, and in turn the likelihood that she will receive financing. In this dissertation, I consider how the structural features of the entrepreneurial finance market create a fertile ground for gender to shape behaviors, leading to capital allocation outcomes that are both unequal and segregated by gender. I first highlight the influence of homophilous preferences and expectations of congruence on matching between investors and entrepreneurs. Then, using field and experimental data, I find that the gender of the parties in the resulting match affects audiences in subsequent evaluation stages. Finally, I show that reward distribution criteria reinforce the gap in returns to ability between all-male and gender-diverse teams. Taken together, the three studies in my dissertation illuminate not only the practical question of how gender affects access to entrepreneurial finance, but more generally the manner by which gendered preferences and processes influence the allocation of resources, yielding important insights into the antecedents and outcomes of structural inequality in capital markets.
