Mind the Gap
Angel investing is immeasurably impactful on early-stage companies, but there’s a gap in both who participate as investors and those who get early-stage funding. When women and people of color bring their unique lenses to investing, it tends to be better for women, for people of color, our communities, and for the planet. Investing in women and minority founders is not only equitable, but also profitable.
