Sexism in venture capitalism, what happens when opportunity is stifled...

Hi everyone...

I've come across a very intriguing article on the 'Business Insider' by Alyson Shontell. It is regarding the environment among many venture capitalists (VC's) in terms of the lack of understanding of how to evaluate startups led by women. It serves in a way as a microcosm of the problems faced by all minorities groups. What happens when the evaluator is unable (or unwilling) to build an environment to properly determine the value and possibilities of a concept or a company?

In a domestic economy that has been stubbornly stagnant for nearly 4 years; both in its ability to expand and innovate. This scenario is part of a larger problem. How can you ramp up hiring when the market gatekeepers are still using outdated principles to judge the worth of a company.
