I find myself drawn to people who are on a mission to change the game and challenge old ways of thinking.
Martina Welkhoff is one of those people. Martina is a serial entrepreneur whose entrepreneurial journey has resulted in many successful business ventures, including Zealyst and ConveneVR.
Now, Martina is broadening her contribution as the co-founder of WXR fund. WXR is a venture fund investing in women-led startups that build the technologies foundational to the future of computing: virtual and augmented reality, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and blockchain. WXR also provides community infrastructure to support women leaders in emerging tech. The investment thesis is rooted in both social and economic impact: WXR aims to help build a more inclusive industry from the ground up and leverage the unique economic opportunity that current demographic imbalances create.
You can learn more about Martina and WXR by visiting their website: www.wxrfund.com and following them on social media at @wxrfund.
In this episode, Martina and I discuss:
- Her hopes for gender equality
- What she looks for in founders when making investment decisions for her fund
- Tips for aspiring entrepreneurs who want to create a truly wealthy life
