Raudline Etienne remembers seeing a Knight Foundation report that said the percentage of assets that minority and women-owned firms manage in aggregate was less than 2% of a multi-trillion dollar industry. “I found it to be offensive,” she recalls in this conversation with host Ann Terrell Dorsett. “I realized that there was so much talent out there that wasn't getting the opportunity and the fact that I was willing to be first was something that would help move the ball forward.” Raudline’s solution was to create Daraja Capital, a seeding platform that lowers the barriers of entry for aspiring fund managers.
