A New Lens for Venture Capital

In Venture Capital, the lens of identifying opportunity and investing in the companies that affect us all has been historically shaped by a narrow perspective. Yet, the world is changing and in a few short years to come, the minority will soon become the majority. As Director of Deal Flow for Backstage Capital’s fund and Accelerator - one that invests in founders who identify as women, person of color and/or LGBTQ - Brittany Davis is in a unique position of identifying this new market. She will share stories of what it means to see through the Backstage lens, how she’s building teams to appropriately support and service this new wave, and navigating the unexpected perspectives that need to be taken into account.
