    Season 4 Episode 4 - Insight into VCs: What are they looking for?

    As you pour blood, sweat and tears into creating a successful startup, have you ever stopped to think about why you are doing what you are doing? If you answered yes, you are not alone. Join Scott Loong, Partner at Panache Ventures, as he discusses why people should align their values with their careers, and why it is important. Successful startups always have a clear answer to validate the purpose of their work and use it as a coping mechanism when going through challenging times. Loong shares that venture capitalists select companies that have an impact on portfolio construction as well as on ideas that can be brought outside a local and even broader national context. Therefore, when startups are thoughtful in their approach when contacting venture capitalists, the process becomes streamlined.

    Season 4 Episode 2 - Is It My Personality or Product That Interests Investors?

    When capital is combined with community, the end product is commercialization and impact. This is exactly what The51 stands for.   The51 is a financial feminist movement for women-led startups to build mutual wealth and share knowledge to become influential innovators and investors. It is all about creating the five wheels of opportunity to unlock the financial feminist economy. Joining the podcast is Judy Fairburn, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of The51, who speaks on why venture capital has historically been male-dominated and how providing a safe and open place to learning helps women pivot their successful startups.   Judy advises that it's not the founders that have the best credentials, the best technology, or the perfect pitch that attracts investors, instead, it is the people who have a real sense of purpose and will make a difference that truly attracts an investor's attention.
