FemCity Podcast with Violette de Ayala and Cheyenne Palma Dominguez with featured guest Nisa Amoils.    Topics covered:  How women can leverage their business for investment What investors look for in businesses Inspiration and action steps   Nisa Amoils is the Author of WTF is Happening [Women Tech Founders] Nisa was named one of Business Insider’s 30 Women in Venture Capital to Watch in 2018, and Top 100 women in Fintech in 2019 by LATTICE80. Nisa Amoils is a tech investor and has been a venture capitalist at Scout Ventures, an active Board Member and former entrepreneur. Her investment focus has largely been on frontier tech, i.e. AR/VR, robotics, drones, AI, autonomous mobility, cybersecurity, blockchain and other disruptive technologies (of which she frequently writes about for Forbes).

For the past decade Nisa Amoils has been investing in frontier technologies. What the heck is that? Frontier technology is the cutting edge, emerging disruptive innovation that is transforming our lives (i.e. blockchain, crypto currency, AI, virtual reality, drones). Nisa is the author of the best selling book “WTF Is Happening? Women Tech Founders On The Rise” which features profiles of a dozen female founders in frontier technology whose remarkable companies are making a difference. One WTF example Nisa shares with us in this Business Builders Show episode is Carrie Shaw founder of Embodied Labs, a wellness company leveraging virtual reality in immersive health education. In our conversation Nisa enlightens us on blockchain, busts the myth on the credentials needed to start (or invest in) frontier technology (what's needed is intense curiosity, not a computer science degree), and why focusing on the ‘so what' of technology is essential. For the entrepreneurs Nisa interacts with, the passion to build companies is personal - which is why she is determined to reallocate capital to them and shine a bright light on their stories - and yes, their stories are ones you want to hear.
