“Talent has no ZIP code.” In a recent interview, our CEO, Laura González-Estéfani, shared her passion for investing in founders outside the usual tech hubs—a mission at the heart of TheVentureCity. 🌍 Laura discussed the importance of backing entrepreneurs where they are, ensuring talented teams can build impactful companies in their own communities. She also highlighted her interest in under-the-radar sectors like life sciences and agriculture: “I’m fascinated by unsexy, old, not-yet-disrupted industries.” Thank you to Walter Thompson for this inspiring conversation!
Laura González-Estéfani founded a startup in Spain that led her to growth roles at eBay and Facebook in Silicon Valley. In 2016, she moved to Miami to found TheVentureCity, an early-stage VC firm that seeks out entrepreneurs working outside major tech hubs in emerging ecosystems. Our interview touched on a number of topics, including her view that hard-working founders (and early employees) “need to be more liquid” without taking “a 50 percent haircut” in the secondary markets. “They deserve to be able to pay for their mortgages, at least,” said Laura. She also talked about where she’s looking to invest, how she prefers to be pitched, and what happens before and after she takes a discovery meeting with a founder. “I am a huge fan of going for lunch with a founder. I would ask about your vision, your passion, your team,” said Laura. “Are you a talent maximizer? Would I work for this guy or this lady?” #FundBuildScale #Podcast #startups #Tech #SiliconValley #Entrepreneurship #AI #Fundraising #PMF #MVP #PLG #PitchDeck #EarlyStage #Seed #LatAm #LatinAmerica #Miami #TheVentureCity #VentureCapital #VC #Secondary

🎉 Big news from Cheryl Sew Hoy, Donald Koo, and the Tiny Health team! Three years after launching the first-ever microbiome test for babies, they’ve teamed up with Superpower for a co-branded Gut Microbiome Test, “Powered by Tiny Health.” This collaboration is a game-changer for anyone looking to boost their well-being and healthspan. With cutting-edge microbiome science, Tiny Health’s test gives an in-depth look into what’s really happening in your gut. Curious to discover what your microbiome’s telling you? We sure are! 🙌 #GutHealth #Longevity #TinyHealth #TheVentureCity
We JUST LAUNCHED Gut Microbiome testing at Superpower. Gut microbiome testing completely changed my life: Two years ago, I had been experiencing brain fog, low energy, eczema, and poor sleep… and only later realized it started with my gut. Gut health is a serious problem. • 2 in 3 Americans have suboptimal gut health • 60 million Americans suffer from digestive disorders • People with depression & anxiety tend to have different gut microbiomes But, problematically, most gut microbiome assessments test only a small number of gut microbes and cost hundreds of dollars. We’ve managed to change that. As part of our mission to make high-end concierge medicine accessible to many, our gut offering brings the latest metagenomic technology to members at far lower prices. It's so good I even want my parents to fly in from Australia to get deep testing done! We have a long way to go, but this is an important step on the journey with Superpower, and I feel grateful to have the opportunity to bring a more holistic, preventative, and complete model of medicine to the mainstream 🧡 I'd love to hear your thoughts or stories about gut health in the comments 👇
