[VCFamilia] Issue #24 - Asian / Latinx Event TODAY, Primer Impacto, 11 VC Jobs & more
Cannot believe it's already the end of May! IRL is back in full swing and we are excited to announce several meetups happening in June. Stay tuned to our slack or next newsletter if these events are open to the broader VCF ally community.
We couldn't wrap up May, however, without hosting our Asian / Latinx in VC Panel later today in Twitter Spaces (3pm PT/6pm EST). Latinx are not a monolith - we are multiracial, multiethnic, and incredibly diverse. Therefore, it is important to celebrate every facet through our monthly event series. What makes this one extra special is the fact that when we did it last year, we were searching for organizations to partner with and we couldn't find any. Now a year later, we are partnering with Gold House and Hyphen Capital that are working to make sure the AAPI founders get funded. What a change a year makes. Join us today!
Asian / Latinx in VC Solidarity Panel
Join VCFamilia, Hyphen Capital and Goldhouse TODAY for a lively conversation to celebrate the culmination of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month!
We will be featuring Bing Chen, President & Founder of Gold House, Betty Francisco, CEO of Boston Impact Initiative and Dave Lu, Managing Partner of Hyphen Capital to discuss the intersections of Asian and Latinx narratives within venture capital and impact investing, and ways to demonstrate solidarity between our communities.
Set a reminder and join our Twitter Space here at 3pm PT/6pm ET!
Primer Impacto
Latinos executing at the highest levels in VC - vamos! 🚀💸
Today, I am proud to announce the launch of Infinity Ventures. Over the past year, we’ve been busy at work investing in nearly a dozen fintech and commerce enablement companies across the U.S., Asia, Latin America, and Europe.

Super proud to share that within 6 years we @ActOneVC have already returned $40mm on our $20mm Fund I (2016 vintage) to our LPs. We are in the top 5% of all VC funds for that vintage year. 2X DPI and still a long way to go.
