Ep. 286 Funding for Native American female founders with the Capital Boutique founder Shannyn Smith

Invest In Her host Catherine Gray talks with Shannyn Smith, Chief of Staff at Arcaea, a Boston-based startup at the intersection of biotech and beauty which launched out of MIT-founded Ginkgo Bioworks (NYSE: DNA). Shannyn excels at business transformation. Most recently, she drove the transformation of Xilio Therapeutics into a public company by leading IPO readiness.   As the Founder of The Capital Boutique, she connects female founders in STEMM and female funders, including accelerators, angel investors, and venture investors, to increase access to capital. Shannyn is an Innovator in Residence at the MIT Innovation Initiative. Her research explores how lack of gender diversity of Limited Partners’ investment leadership reinforces lack of gender diversity of General Partners of venture funds. In 2021, Shannyn was honored as one of the Boston Business Journal's Power 50: The Movement Makers.   Join us on Facebook LIVE every Wednesday at NOON PT @SheAngelInvestors.
