Anxiety. Panic attacks. Burnout.
These are the words 11 Tribes Ventures NEVER wants characterizing the founders in their portfolio. While most firms are focused on deploying just capital, 11 Tribes deploys capital with support -- support for your mental, emotional, and spiritual health.
Startup Grind Chicago returns with a special fireside chat featuring Kristina Chapple, GP at 11 Tribes. We'll discuss:
What's wrong with traditional venture capital and how to fix it
Kristina's journey to making Forbes 30 Under 30
How 11 Tribes supports you as a whole person, not just a company founder
What 11 Tribes is looking to invest in with their new fund.
And much more!
Fresh off a $46M fundraise, they are ready to invest in their next set of startups to prove that the growth of your company doesn't mean the end of your wellbeing.
Come ready with your own questions and join us for a classic Startup Grind night of making friends and helping others, in a brand new location in the Loop, @Skyscraper Guy studios, over bites and drinks!
Event Sponsored by CodeLaunch, the equity-free accelerator providing software development, a massive pitch stage, exposure to hundreds of investors and stakeholders, and the opportunity to win capital investment -- all for FREE -- all wrapped into a Venturetainment spectacle.
