On October 17th at 12pm EST, join the Canada Forum for Impact Investment and Development (CAFIID) in a fireside chat with Eva Yazhari, founder and General Partner of Beyond Capital Ventures, a women-led venture capital firm that invests in early-stage companies in India and East Africa. We will hear from Eva about the innovative funding structures and approaches that the fund has developed to accelerate impact:
- Using their Equitable Venture model, Beyond Capital Ventures shares a portion of its carried interest with portfolio company founders who meet performance milestones;
- Drawing on their deep commitment to gender equality, and to encourage their portfolio companies to promote women into management roles and adopt gender-inclusive policies, Beyond Capital Ventures uses a Gender Empowerment Bonus. Companies that meet these additional criteria are eligible to double their carry.
We hope you can join us during this inspiring conversation with Eva.
