Studies clearly illustrate that investing in women-led companies is great business for investors, yet the biggest chokehold in venture capital continues to be gender injustice.

Our guest, Xiao Jean (XJ) Chen, is an award-winning business and technology hybrid, angel investor, and the Founder & CEO of VenturePole, a Swiss-based, AI-powered venture investment platform.

VCs continue to display little innovation in how they make investment decisions, which is infected by human bias, resulting in a gender gap of over $130 billion.

VenturePole is armed with smart tools, including Investment Risk Rating, Valuation Calculator, Company Strength and Weakness Analysis, as well as automated due diligence.
