Thank you @BarackObama for supporting Lilly Ledbetter & pay #Equality! Thanks to @PerkinsCoieLLP for having me join a panel 8 years ago so I could meet my hero! God speed Lilly
Lilly Ledbetter never set out to be a trailblazer or a household name. She just wanted to be paid the same as a man for her hard work. But this grandmother from Alabama kept on fighting until the day I signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act into law – my first as president.
Lilly did what so many Americans before her have done: setting her sights high for herself and even higher for her children and grandchildren. Michelle and I are grateful for her advocacy and her friendship, and we send our love and prayers to her family and everyone who is continuing the fight that she began.

Great news for Emerging VC Managers to find an experienced LP (& great partner) building capacity for the next industry leaders! Thx @SapphirePrtnrs & @CalSTRS for taking the long view.
1/👑 Once upon a time, today's legendary venture funds were emerging managers…
Which is why today I’m excited to share that @SapphirePrtnrs is launching a new program to invest in emerging venture managers with a sole LP, @CalSTRS, the world's largest educator-only pension fund!
Why we are excited about this next chapter👇 🧵
As part of this new program, we are taking over the management of five existing CalSTRS “New and Next Generation Manager Funds,” representing $1.4B AUM.* Collectively, we have invested in 300+ emerging managers.
Our plan going forward is to invest ~$100M/year into emerging venture managers.🙌
Congrats @Cookie well deserved!
NEW: @TechCrunch has acquired @StrictlyVC

“Investor success has largely relied on networks, mentorship, access to capital, and of course, a little bit of luck. But not everyone has had equal opportunity to access and thrive in venture capital.”
