Ungatekeeping Venture Capital with Kate McAndrew

How do you unlock the elusive world of venture capital and make sure you’re putting your best foot forward as a founder? It’s more than just having a great idea or a slick pitch deck. It’s about being able to express your authentic self honestly and openly to investors – and yes, having a LinkedIn profile helps.

In this episode, Kate McAndrew is here to ungatekeep the VC world, sharing insights on cofounder splits, due diligence, and what funders really want to see. Plus, we get into self-care with high ROI, the power of branding through feminine archetypes, and why it’s sometimes necessary to say “no.” Ready to decode the VC game? Let’s go!

  • [00:00] Intro

  • [01:27] Why cofounders shouldn’t necessarily have equal splits

  • [02:40] What due diligence looks like in VC funding (and how your LinkedIn profile factors in)
