    Setting The Stage_Episode 1

    We’re back! We know we have been gone for a while, so want to share a bit about what we have been working on. For the past two years Francesca and I have been stealthily running an angel syndicate. It has people that span a range of geographies, group chats, VC funds and thesis areas. At the beginning we were not sure it was going to work. It started as just an idea. Could we create something so that we could always be in relation to entrepreneurship? Here is episode one - setting the stage.
