Leila Zegna spent her early career helping other founders achieve success - notably the founders of Innocent Drinks, Endeavor, Plum District, and DNA Sequencing company GenapSys. Now she runs Kindred - her groundbreaking new model for Venture Capital, where each founder in the portfolio becomes a co-owner of the fund! In this chat with Amrit, she discusses how reputation in the world of VC is built not by the founders who get funded, but the ones that don’t, and gives us her framework for measuring and codifying that reputation. Leila reveals Kindred’s unique model for parental leave, that enables Mums and Dads to navigate their own return to work, and finally reveals the secret to a 25 hour day!
