Amongst the sea of male faces that make up the majority of Silicon Valley venture capital, two women have appeared on the landscape and hoisted their sails. One of the few VC firms founded and run by women, Theresia Gouw and Jennifer Fonstad of Aspect Ventures take a different approach to investing. After long and successful solo careers, Gouw and Fonstad have built a venture capital firm focused on seed and series A investments that feels and acts as innovative and fresh as a startup. With companies like Chime, mobile-first banking that automates savings, Cato Networks, a startup that puts network security in the cloud and Vida Health, a next-gen continuous care platform and health marketplace for both consumers and businesses, on their roster, Aspect has created a forward-thinking, mobile-oriented venture capital firm.
