AMA: Christy Brown — Trailblazing CEO supporting future CEOs

As a serial entrepreneur and executive, Christy has spent 20 years as an accomplished leader focusing on human capital services and technologies. In 2019 following her departure from an executive role in a global human capital technology company, she returned to her roots in entrepreneurship steering her interests towards venture capital investments in startups.  Christy saw an opportunity to combine her passion for advocating for startups as well as funding.

In 2019, she joined a private venture capital firm based in New York which offered a unique  opportunity to seed startups with their first round of funding with an average check size of $1M+ combined with shared services to scale & grow them to their next stage.  In this role, Christy developed and grew the opportunity flow, operational strategy and expansion into other potential markets.

Today, Christy’s passion has expanded into supporting the underserved founder focusing her efforts on female founders and founders of color.  In 2020, she moved into the President role for Launchpad2X who’s mission is to scale female founders into CEO’s focusing on education, resources and investment strategies.
