6: Starting a Beverage Company and Raising Venture Capital with Kayla Castañeda
This week we have Kayla Castañeda, founder of Agua Bonita, joining us to share her story.
For some of us, the decision about quitting our jobs to pursue our business full-time takes years or many attempts before actually doing so. For Kayla, the decision was made for her when her company went under in the early pandemic days and left her unemployed.
When that happened, Kayla decided it was time to take a chance on herself and decided to start Agua Bonita with co-founder Erin PonTell. As of today, Agua Bonita has raised over 2 million in venture capital funding. For context, only 2.7 percent of all venture funding goes to women CEOs... Now think about what percentage of that goes to Latina CEOs.
