Latergram: The Changing Face of Venture Capital
The content of this talk keeping popping up in my day-to-day conversations…
Hi Folks!
So I did a talk back in April at the Women in Tech Festival appropriately themed “The League of Extraordinary Women.” It was while I was still working part-time helping build Unusual and was running into so many bumps thinking about what my future could look like as a black women, from the South, who attended an HBCU, with no prior investing experience in venture. People still tweet and email me to this day about it so I thought it’d be cool to share. There are three main points in the talk about how we can diversify venture capital:
Consider a person’s perspective that may be very different from you’re own
Think about the skill set you actually need
Reconsider what “fit” means
ENJOY!
