Amanda_robs Cc First Close Partners - we’ve invested as LPs in 40 venture capital funds that are led by underrepresented managers. We’re 🤔 of sharing a public list of the funds we’ve backed so that founders, co investors, boards, other LPs can easily find some great VC funds to access. Thoughts?

There are the same number of female VC partners in all of Europe as... ...the number of male VC partners in Poland alone. 🤯 Thanks Kinga Stanislawska and Amy Lewin for this eye-opening comparison. Hard to fix the funding gap without addressing this.

We First Close Partners are proud to have invested as LPs in Base10's new Advancement Initiative VC Fund, to put our $ where our 👄 is on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. HBCUs have been excluded from the wealth created by VC funds, as has the Black community.
