I want to see more women in tech and more women take c-suite position in tech companies especially in Africa. Hoping to see this materialize in the coming months/years. #startups #techtwitter

A year ago, I raised my first fund of $12m, and it took 6 months and entailed pitching 1,000 prospective LPs & hearing 900 "no's".

[Maren Bannon @Maren_Bannon]

An investor I really respect always asks the question: "Does the female cofounder have a fair share of the equity?"

If all investors asked this question, and pushed founders to fix discrepancies, it could make a big impact on who benefits from the next decade's unicorns.

[Katherine Boyle @KTmBoyle]

I’m often asked the question: “How do I break into venture capital?”

But the more important question is “should I become a venture capitalist?”

Here are the five books that helped me answer that question.

Funding into women's health companies was up 2x in 2021 from 2020. The industry is booming — but it’s also playing catch up after being underserved for FAR too long. https://t.co/NXEzuLJdgH

As you build your startup, remember that ideas evolve and pivots are sometimes necessary.

Youtube started as a dating website for single people to make videos introducing themselves and preferences, even offered to pay women $20 to upload videos of themselves.

Keep moving.
