CEO at SSE Ventures - investing before pre-seed in founders from the Stockholm School of Economics | Angel investor | Board member | Fighting for diversity & equality in tech
🥳 HAPPY 1-YEAR ANNIVERSARY SSE Ventures! 🥳 You know when you fight really hard for something you believe in more than anything, and it becomes a reality? That's what SSE Ventures has given me. 💪🏽 A fight for giving founders access to capital where other investors might see it's too early. 💪🏽 A fight for female founders receiving their rightful share of venture capital. 💪🏽 A fight for giving first-time fund investors access to investing in the best startups. 💪🏽 And the most important one for me personally - a fight for giving women access to make as much money as men have from venture capital. And that wouldn't be possible without the men who also support us, of course..! 🙏🏽❤️ And look at the numbers..! 🌟 12 investments in 12 months, where 50% of the teams are mixed 🌟 59% first-time fund investors (writing their first LP check with us!) 🌟 44% women among the individual investors (might be beating records?!) I'm so incredibly grateful to all the people who trust us with their money, and to the startups who are letting us be a part of their journeys. And this is just the beginning... 🤩🚀🌟
