BKR Capital’s Lise Birikundavyi was at Startupfest where she shared important insights with #StartupFounders looking to take their ventures to the next level.
As a part of the BDC Women in Tech Bootcamp on July 10th, she was on a panel with female powerhouses Michelle Scarborough (Managing Partner, Thrive Venture Fund at BDC Capital (Canada)), Leah Nguyen (CIO, InBC Investment Corp.), and Neha Khera (Early-stage Investor) to discuss how women founders can navigate the current uncertainties to build a rock-solid company from ground up.
Sharing insights from the other side of the table, Lise was also on a panel on July 11th with Satish Kanwar (Co-founder, Good Future), Meryeme Lahmami (Principal, Pender Ventures) and Marvin Liao (Partner, Diaspora Ventures), discussing the investor viewpoint as they look for investment opportunities during ambiguous macro-economic conditions.
The founders walked away with some invaluable insights and best practices on building a fundamentally strong business, and on the potential impact of AI from a VC’s perspective.
In the evening, BKR Capital cohosted a VC Social alongside friends from Espace CDPQ, including Accelia Capital, AQC Capital, Brightspark Ventures, Inovia Capital, StandUp Ventures, Two Small Fish Ventures and White Star Capital! The amazing event welcomed 400 guests from the Quebec, Canadian and North American investment community and startup ecosystem at the Espace CDPQ offices, and made for a very fun get-together.
Here’s to continuing to build a stronger, robust and more diverse tech ecosystem!
