In part one of this "The Confident Investor" interview, host Lisa Carmen Wang talks with Backstage Capital General Partners Christie Pitts and Brittany Davis about their investing thesis, the importance of diversity, networking, brand building, equity crowd-funding and more. Less than 10% of all venture capital deals go to women, people of color and LGBTQ+ founders. Backstage Capital, founded in 2015, sees this group of oftentimes overlooked founders and companies as an exciting investing opportunity.

Backstage Capital is not just changing the game, they're setting records. Back in February, they sold out of their $1 million crowd-raise in less than nine hours. Now, the company is making headlines again. With the SEC's announcement of new guidelines taking effect, Backstage launched their groundbreaking $5 million campaign with Republic.
