The Crusader Making Silicon Valley Diverse

Less than 2 percent of the companies funded by venture capital companies are run by African Americans, and the number of women founders has plateaued at 17 percent for the last four years. Next week's guest is looking to change all that. In this week's preview, we tease Arlan Hamilton's pivot from music tour manager to venture capitalist focused on funding companies started by women, people of color and members of the LGBT community. She's got an enormous task ahead. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
