#28 Kavita Gupta, ConsenSys Ventures: Impact Investing with an Omni-Considerate Co-Evolution Mindset
In this episode of Creating a Humanist Blockchain Future (Patreon, Soundcloud, Youtube, iTunes) I interview Kavita Gupta, the Founding Managing Parter of ConsenSys Ventures, a $50M fund that invests in the Ethereum ecosystem. We chat about an omni-considerate co-evolution mindset and the various companies ConsenSys Ventures has invested in. Enjoy, and as always, let me know if you have any feedback! Some links:

About Me: My name is Rhys Lindmark and I’m a social entrepreneur. I’m Creating a Humanist Blockchain Future by: a) Empowering the Colorado Blockchain community (check out our ETHDenver hackathon!), b) Developing the Ethereum Commons Co-op and c) Hosting a systems podcast with experts. I’m an alumnus of Techstars Boulder 2015 (Edify). Please reach out if you’d like to connect or have feedback! I’m curious about what you’re working on. You can support me on Patreon, follow me on Twitter, or connect on LinkedIn.
Disclaimer: I own less than $1000 of any given cryptocurrency, so my monetary incentive is not too aligned with Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. :)
