There is a nuance to building companies and products for low-income communities. In this episode of Women who Build, Amie Patel covers how she is helping entrepreneurs build for exactly these communities at Elevar Equity.

Amie describes herself as a “Motel Patel”, which until now I thought was a made-up term from Bollywood! Growing up in Florida as part of a traditional Gujarati family, Amie was fiercely independent. She carved her path from working at premier financial institutions in the world such as Goldman Sachs and Soros Fund to now leading an impact investment firm working to improve the lives of low-income communities in LatAm and India. Many of you already know about her work. This episode provides a deeper look into how a leader should embrace self-awareness and vulnerability to achieve her/his truest, highest potential.

Amie is a graduate of Washington University in St. Louis and Georgetown University.
