Monique raised USD$17m to launch the firm last February\, having worked in the venture capital space in the San Francisco Bay Area for firms including 500 Startups and Lightspeed Venture Partners. \nCheryl Mack\, CEO and Founder of Aussie Angels\, will be joining Monique to share her ideas and experiences in fostering an inclusive landscape whilst local workshop facilitator Bethan Winn will lead a facilitated and interactive session where you will have the opportunity to share ideas about how we can ensure that our investment and innovation community can continue to evolve to be a thriving\, diverse ecosystem. \nRegistration for this unique opportunity is free but essential.
