@bayareawriter Would be great if you did a piece covering all of us :) I would love to share insight for aspiring female founders. Lets make them even more! @bayareawriter
Mexico's @gokocomo raises $6M in funding & secures $50M in debt to give people a way to own fractional shares of vacation homes. @ALLVP_ & @VineVentures co-led the equity round, which also included participation from founders of 4 LatAm unicorns.

“Often our fondest memories are created during vacation — we’re passionate about enabling more people to own a vacation home that’ll serve as the backdrop to unforgettable moments like family game nights, learning how to ride a bike, or holiday celebrations." @gracielarango CPO
Hypothesis: The more people talk and think about money, and the less about logistics and emotions, the less valuable they are to a team or organization. Sure you need to talk about it some, but making it the main focus undermines both performance and humanity.
Van, thank you for expressing the sorrow and relief that we all feel. My hope is that those who hoped for a different outcome will take a moment to empathize with the pain so many of us have felt over the past four years.
There is something good about this election: Right to Repair Law passed in MA. Good for the environment, good for you, bad for corporations. I think thats good. It's about time we put an end to planned obsolescence design.
Broader testing may be key to slowing the spread of COVID-19. That's why we’re proud to announce that we now offer access to at-home saliva test kits at-cost. Restrictions apply.

Love seeing the “anti-amazon” business models succeed. Thank you @Shopify and @faire for powering local retail. The world would be so boring without it.
The worst advice sometimes comes from people who are the most eager to help.
In their rush to give answers, they fail to ask enough questions to understand the dilemma.
Giving advice is like solving a puzzle: it's best to gather all the pieces before trying to put them together
This will be fun! @emelton is as wise as they come. tbh I'm just going to use this as an excuse to learn as much from Emily as I can, and I recommend you join us and do the same!
Predictions by Prof G. Sometimes right, others wrong, but always extremely well thought out. It takes courage to make predictions in such a public manner. I applaude it. In this case, I am bullish on Airbnb (and similar models) being the future of hospitality.
I believe this time next year #Airbnb will be the most valuable hospitality firm in the world and one of the world’s 10 strongest brands.

We talk a lot about "10x potential" in VC. Well, there are only 5 female CEOs in the @cloud100. Sounds to me like >10x potential.
Thanks for leading the way, @MelanieCanva, @karenpeacock, @RachelRCarlson, @collinmathilde, @edith_h
Female founders get @ me!
I know so many women who would rock this job... but at @Sephora, another male CEO
"De Lapuente said Brok has a similar background to his own"
"I wanted a leader who was going to fit in the culture"
"he finds Brok to be a fun person"
I AM SO TIRED
