I really enjoyed being on Galileo Ventures #podcast talking about the #gender funding gap - esp. after Lighter Capital's report (thanks Melissa Widner) which highlighted - yet again - that this is still a big issue in the #startup ecosystem.

With James Alexander I talk about: 
* Why the gender gap persists in #venturecapital
* The challenges for #female #founders
* Practical tips for women raising their first round of #funding
* The role of investors in supporting diverse teams and fostering inclusivity.

Being keen to do more than just talk about the issue, Galileo have devised a course for women founders called Jupiter, which I am facilitating from next week. You can find more about it here (and its not too late to sign up!): https://lnkd.in/gm6SPHk9

Thanks to all the great women and men I have met along the way who are actively trying to help out, call out to UNSW Founders who set up New Wave (to get great women founders started with the basics) and continue to do great work in all their programs: Nina Juhl Kristen Phillips Lucas Hakewill (OK you are no longer there but did heaps!) Dina Titkova David Burt

Also, this podcast is just generally good (and very funny) so give the rest a listen while you are at it!

Want to know what we think about AI investing in Aus? 🔮

James shares his thoughts on early stage funding landscape and AI investing in 2024 with SmartCompany

"I think the intense interest in AI is warranted but the valuation exuberance in some early and late-stage deals will end in disaster. We are experiencing possibly the largest technological platform shift of our lives, and it will take time to play out. Investors need to realise that early winners are not indicative of long-term opportunities – Early leaders might not be the ultimate victors, history tells us they often aren’t. The impact and development of super-intelligence will take time to play out as the AI technologies stack matures and what this means in terms of investment opportunities is evolving.

We’re taking a deliberate and strategic approach with our AI investments over the past three years and going forward, and as a result, we are choosing to back companies that we believe are helping create the new product categories and thus markets of the future."
