The Liberty of Odds by Dawood by 826 Valencia
The Afterlife (S6) Our messenger ﷺ: “Verily, the world is paradise for a disbeliever and prison for the believer. When a believers soul is taken, he has left prison. He is able to roam (the Earth) freely”. Unbelievers souls are imprisoned in ‘Sijeen' - a place low in the 7th Earth. Different ranks of believers can traverse on different levels. The dead see us from their graves, just as we see water through a glass! Attend the funeral prayers! For our messenger ﷺ said: “When a person destined for Paradise dies, Allah ﷻ will not punish the ones who carry the bier, walk behind it and those who attended the funeral prayer”. Dawood (a.s) asked Allah ﷻ: “What is the reward for one who accompanies a funeral procession, solely for Your sake?”. Allah ﷻ replied: “When he dies, I will send down angels (a.s) to attend his funeral procession, and I will forgive him”.

Empowering Women in Venture Capital: The Journey of Marcia Dawood Marcia Dawood is not just a name in the venture capital world; she is a beacon of hope and empowerment for women entrepreneurs across the globe. As a venture partner at Mindshift Capital, Marcia's mission revolves around elevating women-led innovation in sectors that matter, such as health tech, fintech, edtech, and food tech. This blog post delves into her journey, her investment thesis, and the essential changes needed in the venture capital landscape to foster diversity and inclusion. From Angel Investing to Venture Capital Marcia's venture into the investment world began about twelve years ago when she attended an angel investing meeting. Initially unaware of what angel investing entailed, she quickly grasped the innovative potential around her. However, she was struck by a sobering realization: the lack of funding for women entrepreneurs. This pivotal moment inspired her to join various funds, contributing as an investor and member of investment committees. Marcia's passion for supporting women-led businesses led her to co-found Mindshift Capital with her colleague Heather Henyan. Their goal? To invest in women-led companies globally, creating a ripple effect of change and innovation. The Investment Thesis at Mindshift Capital Marcia's investment thesis is rooted in the belief that women-led companies can drive significant change in the world. Mindshift Capital focuses on four key areas: health tech, fintech, edtech, and food tech. These sectors are not just trends; they represent the future of innovation and societal improvement. Global Trends in Investment Marcia highlights a fascinating trend: many entrepreneurs seeking funding often look to the U.S. to commercialize their innovations. This phenomenon is colloquially referred to as "all roads lead to Delaware." U.S. investors can sometimes be hesitant to invest in foreign companies due to unfamiliar tax implications. However, Marcia and her team have successfully navigated these complexities, allowing them to invest in promising companies at lower valuations while providing valuable support for their growth. Understanding Money: A Personal Journey Marcia is currently fascinated by the mindset surrounding money and how it affects people's willingness to invest. She believes that if more individuals understood the potential for positive change through investment, the landscape of entrepreneurship would look vastly different. Many people still perceive investing as an exclusive domain for the wealthy and well-connected. To address this gap in understanding, Marcia launched her podcast, The Angel Next Door, aimed at demystifying angel investing and making it accessible to everyone. She also authored the book Do Good While Doing Well, which discusses how individuals can invest in impactful companies while also achieving financial returns. The Educational Gap in Investing Marcia observes that women often donate money, while men are more inclined to invest. This discrepancy highlights a significant educational gap. Many women are willing to invest but may lack the confidence or knowledge to do so. Conversations about investing need to be normalized and encouraged, ensuring that women feel invited into the investment room. The Future of Venture Capital When envisioning the future of venture capital, Marcia sees a movement toward democratizing private investing. The SEC's 2016 rule change allowed for equity crowdfunding, enabling more people to invest with smaller amounts, starting from as little as $50. This shift has the potential to create a more inclusive investment landscape. Marcia believes that just as public markets have evolved to become more accessible, private investing can follow suit. The rise of platforms like Robinhood has already changed how people engage with the stock market, and similar changes can be expected in venture capital. Expanding Definitions of Accredited Investors Another critical aspect of the future of venture capital involves redefining what it means to be an accredited investor. Marcia sits on an advisory committee to the SEC, where discussions surrounding the definition of accredited investors are ongoing. She argues that expanding this definition and providing more education will allow a broader range of individuals to participate in venture capital, ultimately leading to systemic change. Resources for Aspiring Investors Marcia's website, marciadawood.com, is a treasure trove of resources for aspiring investors. Visitors can access free materials, including the first chapter of her book and worksheets designed to guide new investors. Her podcast episodes cover various topics related to equity crowdfunding and fundraising, making them valuable for both entrepreneurs and potential investors. Frequently Asked Questions What inspired Marcia to focus on women-led companies? Marcia's journey began when she realized the significant underfunding of female entrepreneurs despite their innovative potential. This motivated her to create opportunities for women-led businesses through her work at Mindshift Capital. How can someone become an angel investor? Anyone interested in becoming an angel investor can start by educating themselves through resources like Marcia's podcast, The Angel Next Door, and her book, Do Good While Doing Well. Additionally, joining local angel groups or crowdfunding platforms can provide valuable insights and networking opportunities. What are the key sectors Mindshift Capital focuses on? Mindshift Capital primarily invests in health tech, fintech, edtech, and food tech, aiming to support companies that are making a meaningful difference in the world. How does Marcia see the future of venture capital evolving? Marcia envisions a more democratized venture capital landscape, where private investing becomes accessible to a broader audience. She believes that changes in regulations and educational initiatives will facilitate this shift. Conclusion Marcia Dawood's journey from angel investing to becoming a venture partner at Mindshift Capital is a testament to her commitment to empowering women-led businesses. Her work not only fosters innovation but also encourages a more inclusive investment landscape. By breaking down barriers and providing resources, Marcia is paving the way for the next generation of investors and entrepreneurs.

We explore the empowering potential of angel investing, particularly for women entrepreneurs who are often underrepresented in receiving funding. The conversation highlights the need for more women in decision-making roles to support female-led ventures, particularly in areas like women's healthcare.

This week's episode of Money Tales is all about angel investing. We're joined by Marcia Dawood, and she's on a powerful mission to make early-stage investing accessible to everyone. This investing purpose became apparent to Marcia when her mother was diagnosed with ALS, a devastating disease. Marcia knew she wanted to drive change that could find cures and solutions to the world's biggest challenges. While she didn't have billions to invest, Marcia discovered angel investing as a way to support entrepreneurs tackling the causes that mattered most to her. Many people think angel investing is only for the wealthy, and it can be intimidating. But Marcia sees it as an opportunity to educate and empower. Marcia Dawood is an early-stage investor who serves on the Securities and Exchange Commission's Small Business Capital Formation Advisory Committee. She is a venture partner with Mindshift Capital, a member of Golden Seeds, and the chair emeritus of the Angel Capital Association (ACA), a global professional society for angel investors.

She is committed to expanding support for diverse companies that overcome the world's biggest problems and accelerate positive change. She is passionate about bridging the gap from early-stage inception to building thriving, profitable companies. Previously, Marcia worked in sales, marketing, and operations for Kaplan Education for over sixteen years. She received an MBA from the University of North Carolina Kenan-Flagler Business School. Marcia currently lives in North Carolina with her husband, Izzy, and she feels lucky to be the stepmom to three amazing sons.
Imagine a world where more women and women of color are in check-writing and decision-making roles at every level of entrepreneurship and investing. That's the future I explored as an intern at Golden Seeds (back in 2010), an angel fund dedicated to women-owned and led startups. I relished sitting in on investor pitches and learning about innovative solutions in areas as varied as reproductive health, children's education, and sustainable fashion -- spaces where women's lived experiences are uniquely valuable. In this podcast episode, I interviewed Marcia Dawood, a trailblazer in the angel investing space who's also an author, TEDx speaker, and venture partner. Marcia is passionate about demystifying angel investing and empowering more women -- at all income levels -- to get involved. We discussed: Marcia's journey into angel investing, the challenges she's faced, and the wins she's celebrated. The stark funding disparities women and minority founders continue to face. Practical strategies for women to get started as angel investors, even without a finance background or large sums of money. How to build relationships with entrepreneurs, evaluate deals, and create a diversified investment portfolio. Tune in to find out how you, too, can become a catalyst for change through angel investing, no matter where you're starting from.

This week on the Expert Voices podcast, Randy Wootton, CEO of Maxio, speaks with Dawoud Nasraty, Director of Consulting at Armanino. After serving as an accountant at a Big Six firm, Dawood's career trajectory includes roles for a European telecommunications company in Afghanistan and as a CFO. Dawoud and Randy talk about the intricate world of data and decision-making, the technological advancements shaping accounting practices, and lay out the essential lessons and best practices drawn from Dawood's extensive stint as both a consultant and an in-house financial controller. They also discuss the necessity of solid infrastructural investment and why startups often fail without robust financial systems. Quotes“Sound metrics built on sound data. And a lot of companies that get started, not all, but a lot of them, in the beginning, don't pay as much attention to the back office, the finance, and accounting. So it's important, like finance and accounting takes like second or third place, but it's important to establish a solid foundation in that area sooner than later, not too early, but not too late. So the CFO, the CFO needs to encourage investment in the finance function at different stages in the company's life cycle.” -Dawoud Nasraty [18:18]“Someone once said to me that the number one deal killer in M&A is accounting issues and that's because companies haven't done the work, hiring professional consultants, advisors, fractional CFOs to come in and help put the systems in place so the data works and so that they can represent the reports.” -Randy Wootton [11:41]Expert Takeaways Establishing strong finance and accounting foundations early is critical for startups to manage reporting and withstand investor scrutiny effectively.A coordinated system of record is essential for assembling a 'single source of truth' that facilitates accurate decision-making.Overlooking the importance of meticulous financial management and data integrity can lead companies toward a wind-down state.Implementing effective technologies can change the game for SaaS companies in aligning with sales teams and managing cash flows.Learning from failures and 'worst practices' informs better approaches and readiness for future business challenges.Timestamps(00:39) Dawoud's background(06:10) Working with a startup company and setting up accounting systems(12:29) Good data and its role in statistics, finance, and economics(18:08) Sound metrics are built on sound data(24:21) The challenge of transitioning from spreadsheets to a solid tech platform(29:08) The impact of revenue recognition on business metrics(31:11) The need for a thoughtful approach to data managementLinksMAXIOUpcoming EventsMaxio Institute ReportRandy Wootton LinkedInDawoud Nasraty LinkedIn
