About this listen
Host Rossie E. Turman III sits down with Ernest Kabuye, managing partner at Seven Capital Ventures, a firm focused on FinTech, e-commerce, and transportation/logistics in Africa and the Middle East, to discuss some of the internal and external challenges faced by underrepresented investors and founders in venture capital, such as the mythical need to follow a ‘checklist,’ the burdens of both success and failure, and how to assess bias and allyship. Kabuye says, “If we don't know what our biases are,… then it's going to be very difficult for us to be able to properly evaluate what these ideas are. And then, we will miss out—great opportunities and good ideas come from everywhere. The opportunity to then take advantage of them and invest in them might not be the same for everyone, but there are good ideas everywhere you go.”
