Libra Leaders Launch Latinas in VC
In honor of Women's History Month, my Libra Leaders sisters and I are celebrating the stories and contributions of women who are shaping the future of investing and entrepreneurship with the launch of our first-ever Latinas In VC: Women Investors Guide. This groundbreaking guide highlights pioneering women and Latina investors in early-stage funding—leaders catalyzing high-growth companies and driving meaningful economic transformation.
STANFORD SUMMIT FOR LATINX FOUNDERS & FUNDERS
We know the numbers. Women and founders of color are dramatically underfunded in their entrepreneurship efforts. While it is a lost opportunity to remedy that only 2% of overall venture funding is going toward women, the numbers are even worse for LatinX founders. Funding for underrepresented founders is not a pipeline problem. It is an opportunity problem which countless talented people face in launching enterprises which require a strong network and extensive external funds to build, grow, and eventually exit.
LatinX MBAs = Excellence
Our community sizzles! Last November, I attended the incredibly well-organized, inaugural LatinX MBA alumni leadership summit hosted at Amazon Studios in Los Angeles and sponsored by TPG, Fidelity Investments, Google, Capital Group, Morrison Foerster Foundation, and ServiceNow.
