The Power of Community: Welcome VP3's to the Republic Venture Partners family!

Amid all of the chaos and noise that 2020 has brought, we at Republic know that we still have a job to do. Republic was founded on the premise that it was high time to democratize private investing in America, in order to give more Americans access to growth capital that was previously exclusive to the wealthy elite. But I’m not here to tell you this work is more important than ever. It has always been important. The only difference is our world looks different than it did last year, and it’s time to face the music.

This year that music has been to the tune of a seismic shift in the balance of power. In theory, democratization of any system is intended to distribute power and include checks and balances to ensure harmony. But we know that within any system - especially one made of fallible humans - power is not evenly distributed. 

Though it is true that there are various types of power, there are also various sources of power. And here at Republic, we believe the greatest source is community power.

Community is core to Republic’s identity. Founding and funding a startup is grinding, back-breaking work that isn’t for the faint of heart. But no matter how tough you are, having a supportive community of champions interested in watching you shine is crucial to any company’s success. Republic investors are a dynamic group of individuals with many levels of experience and backgrounds, but they all share one common trait: a passion for supporting founders.

It is therefore my great pleasure to introduce the third cohort of Venture Partners (“VPs”), a group of talented individuals who have agreed to support Republic in the course of their own impressive careers. They are mission-driven investors motivated to create more opportunities for diverse founders to access resources critical to their success. They make investments across verticals and stages, and have an acute focus on serving diverse founders to get more innovative companies off the ground. In addition to being supportive and energetic founder champions, they are also Olympians, veterans, world travelers, athletes, artists, and polyglots.

I have learned incredible lessons about community power from our Venture Partners, which started with a 2019 pilot followed by the VP1, VP2, and now VP3 cohorts. Here’s a taste of what they have helped us do, and their incredible achievements and contributions to the startup ecosystem since July:

  • VPs sourced 43% of Partnerships dealflow in Q3 at Republic in 2020. VPs not only find founders but ARE founders, and several have launched their own campaigns on Republic (and counting!)

  • Four VPs and I have become scouts for Lightspeed Venture Partners.

  • VP1 Lolita Taub launched the Community Fund to invest in early stage community centric companies.

  • VPs helped us highlight companies fighting climate change in response to recent environmental crises including the California wildfires.

  • This year, VP3 Kathryn Cartini and Chloe Capital have deployed $1.25M in funding in partnership with the ECMC Foundation to female founders on the forefront of work and education. The next signature #InvestInWomen program will be held in 2021 - women-led clean tech companies can apply at chloecapital.com/funding.

  • VP3 Melissa Herman at Left Tackle Capital kicked off The League of Extraordinary Funders in partnership with Grasshopper Bank, a series to amplify the funds and fund managers changing and investing in our future.

  • VP3 Ramses Villela launched the first Mexican STO for ECF Capital (raising funds in USD) and launched Cybermillions, a sweepstakes company connecting donors to nonprofits through valuable experiences.

  • VP2s William Stringer and Claire Veuthey raised $500k in pre-seed capital and is launching a $15 million fund to back idea-stage and side-hustle founders at Chisos.

  • VP1 Allie Felix organized the first Southeast CEO Summit for Series A and B startups across the region to connect with national investors and startup operators.

  • VP2 Rashida Bobb has joined the Board of Directors of the Women Heart Organization, a national heart disease awareness organization advancing awareness and treatment in women’s heart health.

  • VP3 Candice Cook Simmons was selected to serve on the Board of Directors for Greyston and the Industrial Sewing and Innovation Center.

  • VP3 Marcia Chong has been honored as a 2020 Amplifier, a recognition by Amplify Latinx for 30 leaders in Massachusetts who are risk-takers, quiet disruptors, and outspoken advocates leading social change by amplifying in our communities.

  • VP2 Noorjit Sidhu writes his perspective about the Future of Communities in tech-enabled platforms on Medium. (Have we mentioned how much we love community?!)

And these are just the highlights.
