Kathryn Gould was one of the world’s first female venture capitalists.
After a successful career at Oracle, she joined a VC firm and then later started Foundation Capital. Now retired, she recently gave a commencement speech at the University of Chicago that’s filled with advice for graduates — especially women — who want to make it in tech.
On this week’s podcast, Gould chats with VentureBeat’s Dylan Tweney and Kia Kokalitcheva about being a woman in VC, how she got really good at her job, and … winemaking.
