We'll remember 2019 as a pretty awesome year. A year of new connections and collaborations. Of new VC funds and LPs. And, of stronger advocacy and ground-breaking events focused on supporting and investing in women and diverse founders.

We ended the year as an LP in several new funds that are committed to investing in women and diverse founders. We also added a half-dozen knock-out startups to our portfolio.

Venture capital investing might seem more like an art than science. But we don't just "go with our gut" or first impressions, no matter how impressive the founder's pitch deck is. Our diligence includes questions in five key areas that every potential investor should get the answers to first.

Why do we believe women-led startups are a better bet? It's not just our gut. A growing body of evidence shows that VC-backed businesses founded by women deliver higher revenues and outperform male-led businesses.

Our portfolio of awesome women-led companies is growing. So is our team. Plus, who raised what. Who said what. And, events you should know about.
