    For more women VC fodder, the Women's Technology Cluster in San Fran will host the 2nd Annual WTC Venture Capital Awards on April 4th, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View. The event honors VC firms that invest in women-led businesses and features women VC speakers.

    re:invention's 2004 "Venture Funding for Women Entrepreneurs" report (co-authored by Growthink Research) was the inspiration for the 1st WTC Venture Capital Awards, held in 2005. Sadly, re:invention is often omitted by investor publications who mention the report (like Fortune Small Biz, twice in their April ed.). Quite ironic, since we are a woman-led firm.

    Venture One conducted this year's WTC Awards analysis. But re:invention's SVP, Melissa Reinert, sits on the WTC's advisory board for their upcoming Angel Colloquium.

    Hope you will attend...

    kindly,
    kirsten

    Christine's the real deal.

    She's a great ambassador for Omidyar Netwrok -- and here's my "secret" insight -- if someone's in Christine's network, they're probably someone with whom you can trust and do business.

    Nice profile.
