New York, NY (PRWEB) June 27, 2012

Feel My Money (http://www.feelmymoney.comext) Joins Astia’s International Network of Entrepreneurs, Investors, Corporations and Industry Leaders

Feel My Money, a New York-based pro-consumer financing start-up, has announced its invitation to join Astia, the premier global network serving women-led, high-growth start-ups since 1999.

Feel My Money was selected from an international pool of competitive start-ups to join the Astia community for 2012’s New York Global Entrepreneur Program. Invitations are extended only to those companies that pass Astia’s robust screening and qualification process. Since 2003, just 224 companies have been invited to join the global Astia network.

“Each company Astia is welcoming into this year’s New York program earned its place through an extremely competitive screening process,” said Astia Chief Executive Officer Sharon Vosmek. “I look forward to working with Feel My Money to help accelerate its path to success by teaming the company with industry leaders and building valuable connections within the investor community.”

Unlike other conferences and programs for entrepreneurs, Astia clients receive comprehensive support services throughout the company’s growth, helping to ensure success and sustainability. Astia maintains a host of well-recognized industry partners that support women-led innovation and continues to be championed by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, the nation’s leading foundation for entrepreneurship.

“We are honored to be recognized by this prestigious program as a high-growth venture and to be provided access to the global business community,” said Nicole Hamilton, chief executive officer and founder of Feel My Money. “Astia’s support and amazing team of experts will strengthen our company’s foundation and propel its growth.”

Feel My Money is launching at a critical time when consumers are faced with increasing uncertainty about obtaining financial products and have mistrust about financial sites. Feel My Money provides improved understanding of financial products online. The company is producing powerful loan and other visualization and decision-making tools that are easy to use and understand and that make the process of obtaining financial products online transparent and trustworthy for consumers from end to end.
