Women In The Building

Venture capital used to be the default path for growth. That’s no longer the case, as VC capital is no longer a default requirement to launch and build a company. In this episode, we look at how the role of VC has changed, what alternatives founders have today, and when raising venture is still the right move.

We’re joined by a VC operator, and a two-time founder who’s seen both sides: building one company with VC funding, and another entirely through bootstrapping.
