She's Independent Investments

The Boulder Chamber panel speaking on building an inclusive economy touched on the importance of networks and being proactive about where you show up and plug in. At She's Independent Investments, we talk about this regularly—not only for deal sourcing but also to connect with strategic partners, potential members, and talent! If you just wait for deals to come to you you’re not only missing the best opportunities… but the funding gaps we want to address won’t be materially impacted. By showing up and saying WE WANT MORE WOMEN AND UNDERREPRESENTED FOUNDERS FUNDED we attract a different set of deals, and we strive to plug into networks of folks from all different backgrounds. Thanks for sharing your wisdom cc: Henry L. Wright, Bhavna Chhabra, Stephanie Knight, Robin Thurston, Joseph E Hovancak.

See you in Boston!

She’s Independent Conversations are back, kicking off with an inspiring fireside chat featuring David Brown, Co-Founder of Techstars, the world’s FIRST accelerator. David describes himself as a lifelong entrepreneur and investor. His career spans over forty years, starting and building sustainable companies, including Pinpoint Technologies (acquired by ZOLL Medical), Techstars, and Zintinus. In this conversation, we’ll be asking David about his career, lessons learned, what he thinks about accelerators today, and his thoughts on angel investing. We’ll include time for audience Q+A so folks in the room and online can get their questions answered. This event is co-hosted in partnership with CU Boulder’s Deming Center for Entrepreneurship and the conversation will be moderated by She's Independent Investments' Managing Partner Natalie Levy. We're offering an in-person and virtual option to join this event. See you at 10am MT on November 20th! > https://lu.ma/32t26shd She's Independent Investments makes investing work better, for more people. cc: Betsy Klein

We’re looking forward to welcoming you to our upcoming Office Hours where we can chat through all things dealmaking and checkwriting! She's Independent members and prospective members are welcome! Our Q3 pitch event featured a quality lineup of companies spanning healthcare and women’s health to biotechnology. Our investment group is now in diligence with three deals. We run screening and diligence in a way that truly incorporates voices and influence from all of our member community. Our collective diligence efforts - also often member-led - ensure some level of de-risking around the investments we move forward with. What do we look for? Traction, execution, founder competency, and so much more...! Join us to learn, step into deal leadership with us, and/or to gain access to quality, impactful investment opportunities. Join us during our Office Hours on 8th November to ask us ANYTHING. We’re a member-led angel investment group offering insight, support, and access. You don’t need capital today to step into influence with us. See you there: https://lu.ma/nh7breq2 She's Independent Investments makes investing work better, for more people.

We had a great time attending and exhibiting our investment group at the Boulder Chamber Economic Summit! We had the pleasure of engaging with several local entrepreneurs, investors, and future investors in the Boulder ecosystem, and we want to thank the Boulder Chamber for including us. cc: Joseph E Hovancak John Tayer Writing the check changes the game.

Bravo, Jessica Meunier ! We love what you do and how you show up!!

We’re looking forward to our upcoming pitch event on October 1st! These events are curated to bring in a handful of businesses our members express interest in. One of the things that makes us - US, is a path to real dealmaking access and investment influence. All members at She's Independent Investments have a voice and say and we truly democratize the dealmaking process starting with which companies present to our group. We’re women-first which means we lean into women- (and diverse-) owned ventures, recognizing the massive private funding gaps that exist today. But we aren’t restricted in terms of our capital deployment. Our members can choose how they want to allocate and we’re just here to help make it happen and tool folks with expertise and community along the way. We love seeing great businesses delivering value to women no matter the ownership! This upcoming pitch event happens to showcase a number of businesses owned by men. However, their impact on women, society, and health is clear. It’s also significant to note that we wouldn’t be evaluating investment if we didn’t see enough alignment in terms of culture and how they operate. Shoutouts to the impressive lineup: Adaptive Reader, Altis Biosystems, Onconostic Technologies/3N Diagnostic Group, FetalEase , and Genius Academy! Cc: Rachel Mehta and Idong Essiet-Gibson, PhD, PMP as well for their efforts driving dealmaking ;) Join us for Pitch Day October 1st! https://lu.ma/1jfbvp9k Interested in dealmaking or mapping a path to it but not yet involved?
