Hey Female Founders,
You have kids or lots of other responsibilities? We see that as a positive. You can balance a million things at once.
Your office doesn’t have a ping pong table in it? That’s okay, ours doesn’t either.
Worried we are going to hit on you? Don’t. We’ve both been in your shoes. We know.
Your job is hard enough already, and we want to help.
Our diverse community of committed investors from across the country stands with you.
We are a conduit for their values and desire for change….
Change in how business gets done and how the investing industry works.
Together, we believe the next generation of the world’s best businesses will succeed through their relentless pursuit of positive impact and a commitment to diversity that starts at the top.
Rethink Impact is a female-led, institutional-scale venture capital firm dedicated to supporting these ideas.
This is our founding DNA. It’s why we exist.
Apply for Series A or Series B funding from us
or sign up for Rethink Impact office hours in DC, NYC, and SF to get advice or feedback on your business.
One day a month for the next 6 months.
In partnership,
Jenny, Heidi, and the Rethink Impact Team, entrepreneurs, and friends
