Dr. Jessica Grossman is thinking about joining the first VC fund focused on women’s health startups, she announced at Tech Cocktail Week Sessions in downtown Vegas in June. The fund, called EXXclaim Capital , will invest in companies focused on areas like pediatrics, health and wellness, and digital health. According to MedCity News , the fund was started by Dr. Anula Jayasuriya and Karen Drexler and has already invested in Wildflower Health and Medable . “Women’s health has been extremely overlooked by today’s VCs because, guess what? Less than 5% of VCs are women and people invest in what they know,” Grossman said. EXXclaim Capital, which is still looking for limited partners to provide more capital, is willing to invest up to a few million dollars in companies who are expecting to exit for just $30 million or $60 million, Grossman said – a smaller return than most VCs are looking for. In the process, she hopes to see more women board members at the companies they fund. Grossman is a serial entrepreneur who has always been passionate about women’s health. She founded Gynesonics, which built a minimally invasive device to help treat fibroid tumors and be an alternative to major surgery.

With his first interests being tae kwon do and computer programming, Matt Dorey shifted his focus and worked on his parents’ business at the age of fifteen. In doing so, he realized he wanted to be successful. This realization changed his focus from tae kwon do and computer programming to being a success – which, in his mind, meant making money. He experienced the whole process of being passionate about something to raising funding to building a company to losing sight of his passion. He realized he could not do it anymore and thus stopped and unwired. Matt shares his journey to building culture through inputs and outputs in the video below.
All this led to the creation of Factory Zero, an innovation colony in San Francisco and the first location of Memento. They are looking at building colonies like it in other locations. dolivelove.com is one of their first projects.
Tech Cocktail Week is a monthly series of events that takes place in downtown Las Vegas and is produced in partnership with Tony Hsieh’s Downtown Project.
