The venture capital and entrepreneurship ecosystem has been critiqued for a lack of diversity for years; despite pledges and narrative shifts, change in terms of VC decision makers and founders has been close to non-existent. How can we move to real action? Who are our best bets in terms of driving that? In this candid panel conversation with VC decision makers we want to talk frankly about the options.

Moderator: Johannes Lenhard, VentureESG

Panelists:

• Fiona Murray, MIT
• Kate Murtagh, Harvard Management Company

This session is presented by the Race, Gender & Equity Initiative in partnership with the Rock Center for Entrepreneurship.
