Ep 132: "Can your VC Investors be your Friends & Family?" with Miki Reynolds

Can Venture Investment into more diverse founders, in more diverse neighborhoods yield better ROI? Can a Venture Firm become “the” community resource for entrepreneurs in a City? In this episode, Rob and Miki Reynolds sit down to explore and answer these questions! Miki is an incomparable Los Angeles entrepreneurial thinker, and now Head of Programs at Slauson & Co, which is a dynamic young and very intentionally inclusive venture firm based in LA. These two friends explore the urgent need for diversity in the startup world and how the industry continues to evolve. Miki highlights how important “the Company We Keep” is to the founder journey. From breaking barriers for underrepresented founders to reimagining venture capital, Miki shares actionable insights on building a more inclusive ecosystem. Plus, don’t miss the big, exciting announcement of Slauson & Co’s latest Fund and the return of their expanded accelerator, Family & Friends program!
