Bianca Reed Season 1 Episode 8

Join me in celebrating Black Business Month with a special episode featuring Himalaya Rao-Potlapally, the Managing Director of The BFM Fund. The $10 million seed-stage fund supports scalable, Black-led ventures in the US. We'll uncover her path to VC leadership and her joy in nurturing entrepreneurs. Explore funding rural and BIPOC communities, the transformative role of entrepreneurship in economic growth, venture capital's impact on Black-led businesses, inclusivity, and development, investing in Femtech, and how everyone can be an entrepreneur. Discover the socio-economic implications of funding early-stage businesses in underserved areas. Tune in for a dialogue that enriches perspectives and fuels inspiration.
