In this clip, James McInnes () shares the moment he realized business cards and LinkedIn weren’t enough to truly remember the people he met.

We discuss what reinventing the financial service experience for women looked like, why women managing funds is sadly still far from the norm, and why The Fund they launched in September 2020 is investing in female-led companies (and what opportunities that can generate).
