If there is anyone who knows the ins and outs of building a team for success, whether it’s in entrepreneurship or venture capital it’s Rachel ten Brink. Today she’s General Partner and co-Founder of Red Bike Capital, a Latino and woman-led Venture Capital fund based in New York that invests in early stage, high-growth startups that drive the economy and improve people’s lives. Red Bike supports US-based founders in FinTech, Ecommerce SAAS, Marketplaces, and Wellness, leveraging the team’s 30+ years of experience with an authentic connection to the startup ecosystem and a strong track record in asset management. And just earlier this year it closed equity investment from Bank of America, which we discuss at the top of this podcast.

Prior to founding Red Bike Capital, ten Brink was Co-Founder and CMO of Scentbird, a Y-Combinator backed ecommerce startup that raised $29M in venture funding. Today, it is our pleasure to welcome Rachel, a proud daughter of Cuban immigrants who has built a career in entrepreneurship and venture capital to the show as we discuss the firm’s Bank of America investment, navigating tough economic times and building a winning team.
