☆ VC Jennifer Stojkovic's post went viral after a founder harassed her in a LinkedIn pitch: 'It's much more common than you think'
  + stars: | 2023-08-15 | by ( Madeline Renbarger | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Jennifer Stojkovic, a general partner at Joyful Ventures, commonly turns down founder pitches. But after she and her husband, also an investor, both rejected the same founder, he blew up at her. After explaining to the founder that her fund doesn't invest in "insects," or insect proteins, the founder replied with several expletives and personal insults. The founder continued to insult Stojkovic in the post's comments, and he appeared to delete his LinkedIn profile on Monday. Are you a female founder or investor who has faced harassment?

Developer tool startups that were part of Y Combinator's latest class are drawing strong interest from several high-profile venture capitalists. Sequoia partner Lauren Reeder personally participated in the code review startup's recent funding round, according to a Sequoia spokesperson. That fundraising was at a $30 million post-money valuation, one person familiar with the deal said. Developer tool startups accounted for 26% of the companies in YC's winter 2023 batch, up from 16% of the summer 2022 class, according to the accelerator's startup directory. Have a tip on a startup funding round?

☆ Women in venture capital are writing the rules of maternity leave and bending the male-dominated culture to their will
  + stars: | 2022-10-31 | by ( Melia Russell | Madeline Renbarger | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +13 min
And with more women entering the male-dominated venture industry, firms are being forced to craft maternity leave policies on the fly to accommodate new mothers. Forty years ago, the clubby male world of venture capital admitted so few women that maternity leave as a benefit was effectively nonexistent. "There is no playbook about how to take maternity leave or raise a family while also accelerating your career as an investor." Lux CapitalLike in many male-dominated industries, maternity leave as a benefit for investors doesn't come up in conversation until someone needs it. Though, the best policies, investors said, give women choices about how they operate on leave, rather than prescribing a one-size-fits-all leave.
