Equity and company shares are usually far off the radar of the general public. Equity seems to be a term from the glamorous world of the startup founders and investment managers in ties and Bentley cars.
Yet, things are changing.
I sat down with Naïma Camara, CEO & Founder of Ownership, to discuss the evolving role of equity.
Dynamic equity not only allows founders to attract talent even when capital is scarce. It can also help employees and contributors to build a portfolio of assets. Moreover, dynamic equity may also bring remarkable and much needed change to the whole entrepreneurial landscape. How? Keep on listening.
Some of the topics we explore:
- How you, I and anyone else can earn shares in a startup. Portfolio careers.
- Part-time startup founders: science fiction or reality?
- Equity: much more than just an incentive for employees, much more than just access to talent for underrepresented founders.
- Hiring teams in early stages of company building.
- Quotas as a tool to drive more capital to fund BIPOC founders.
