In this conversation we discuss how a woman in her mid fifties with a highly successful corporate career could so completely change direction by entering the crazy and unpredictable world of startups.
In this conversation we cover what it is like to make that transition, the fears she faced, the sleepless nights and the nagging doubts.
We discuss her early involvement with angel investing and then what it was like on the other side of the fence as she jumped in to lead the electric motorbike company "UBCO" with the need to raise substantial sums of money from venture capitalists.
We cover some of the differences between the NZ and US commercial environments and she gives us her thoughts on the Kiwi startup ecosystem, as well as some great advice around when to engage a board for your early stage company and the nature of the CEO and Chairman relationship.
