Aperture Venture Capital Announces Strategic Partnership with InnovateHER Inc.
Aperture Venture Capital, an $75M US seed-stage venture fund that invests in Black, Latino, and female founders building the future of fintech and related market spaces, announced a new strategic partnership with InnovateHER Inc., one of the largest entrepreneurial organizations in the country devoted to supporting a diverse spectrum of female founders.
InnovateHER has approximately 5,000 members, 64% of whom identify as diverse or intersectional – specifically belonging to more than one marginalized demographic. Under the terms of the new partnership, Aperture VC will support selected InnovateHER programs in three main areas: Professional Development, Advocacy and Mentorship. The Aperture VC linkage with InnovateHER will offer entrepreneurs access to the fund’s managing partners and extensive ecosystem of corporate and strategic partners.
Aperture VC managing partner Garnet Heraman says, “I’ve seen firsthand – with my own family members – the unfulfilled potential of women who would benefit from InnovateHER’s entrepreneurship programs and resources. We are proud to support the InnovateHER mission of making access to capital and capabilities more frictionless for all female founders.”
InnovateHER founder and CEO Lauren Conaway notes, “More women are launching businesses than ever – and it’s crucial that we offer more support and resources to marginalized founders in order to level the playing field. Through this partnership with Aperture VC, we look forward to forging more access points to opportunity for the leaders we serve.”
