How do you build a billion-dollar company without compromising your mission?
Join our panel discussion on September 30 to hear from seasoned founders and VCs into what it really takes to scale with intention - beyond vanity metrics and short-term wins.
Panel:
- Yael Shemer, Co-Founder & CCO of TULU, turned an MIT-born idea into one of the fastest-growing circular economy startups. She’s raised $30M (Series A), scaled to 200,000+ users across 53 cities, and built global partnerships with the world’s biggest landlords. Backed by Bosch, Kärcher, and New Era Capital, Yael will break down how to balance hyper-growth with sustainability — and what it really takes to build a category-defining startup in a space most investors once ignored.
- Tahira Dosani, Founder and Managing Partner of ResilienceVC, a $58M early-stage fintech venture fund. In addition to her 15-year investing career, Tahira was previously an operator, building tech, telecoms, and payments solutions globally. Tahira will share insights on investing in purposeful growth and backing founders who scale with impact.
- Moderator: Lesya Arnold, founder of A-Players and creator of a community of impact-driven tech startup founders & investors.
