As a finance leader with a successful track record across multiple industries, my vision is to leverage my unique blend of traditional finance and cutting-edge tech knowledge to champion women in blockchain and support female founders. Incredibly, women-led startups still receive less than 3% of venture capital funding in North America. And both Deloitte and Boston Consulting Group report that the percentage of women in new technologies like blockchain and Web3 projects remains woefully low, too. The gender gap is real, and its implications are a drag on 21st century society. The annual Rosenzweig Report on female leadership inspires, reminding us that diverse leadership teams thrive whether at startups, mid-size firms or large publicly-listed companies. Our advisor, Jay Rosenzweig, deserves a tip of the cap for holding up a mirror to business every year, prompting us to do better when it comes to gender equality. With women making the majority of the household spending decisions, not investing in women in business costs investors money.
