My own experiences reporting on the Worcester Police Department have informed my perspective on community policing up to this point. (I would like to acknowledge my serious place of privilege as a white middle-class woman.) Writing about Officer Alexander Maracallo, the Byrne Criminal Justice Innovation Initiative and the Shannon Grant painted a positive picture in my mind of the WPD's work with our City's youth. This interview with Molly Bond and Michelle Puch of Defund WPD pushed me to begin questioning the societal structures and systems I had come to accept as unchanging. We talked "guardian vs. warrior," school resource officers, and the reallocation of funding. I left with more questions than answers, but I think that might be a good thing for now. -Sarah

Who is Imène Maharzi? Imène Maharzi is a French based professional, who started working in the French Private Equity space 18 years ago. She started out her career as an auditor with Arthur Andersen, and then became an investment professional with Butler Capital Partners where she had the opportunity to explore several sectors, geographies, investment sizes and targets. In 2013, she created Butterfly Partners, a company which invests time and money in start-ups and subject matter experts which demonstrate a social or environmental positive impact. In 2014-2015, she took over a majority stake in a school transportation company dedicated to exceptional children with autism, Down syndrome, etc.. As the CEO, she transformed a 15-year family business into a social business, with a resolution to trigger a positive social impact on both employees and beneficiaries, through a strong user-centric, quality-driven approach. As she moved through her professional career, she noticed that there was a problem in getting access to capital for female founders that she saw resulted in a massive waste of both economic and social value. This led her to create OwnYourCash this year. OwnYourCash is an educational platform, both online and IRL, to train women (and men) to become Business Angels. By opening a conversation on biases, gender-lens investing and impact investing, OwnYourCash will contribute to smoother access to capital for projects co-founded by women. With OwnYourCash, she is committed to training 2000 new female business angels by the year 2020. The mission of OwnYourCash is to foster economic independence for women leading to true male/female equality Show Highlights Imène shared her professional journey into private equity and ultimately starting her new company OwnYourCash to educate and train 2000 new female business angels by 2020. Imène talks about social entrepreneurship in France…creating a social return and a financial return. Imène shares the details on OwnYourCash and how the time is right to educate new business angels and create a new business angle network and how the change in the tax laws in France this year will be a positive thing for new business angels. If Imène had a magic wand, she would make the ‘plain vanilla’ investing be impact investing with everyone going after economic return along with a social or environmental return. Terri’s Key Takeaway Investing is an information business.

Who is Shannon Grant? Shannon Grant is an investor, community builder and startup advisor. She leads knowledge programs for the best and brightest minds in tech to facilitate high-level knowledge transfer and create powerful experiences for time-strapped leaders. In 2014 she developed the Salon Series events at MKThink focusing on the future of education, and she helped build a membership organization of over 80 mission-driven CEOs with The Tugboat Group. She has coached founders to create original talks for CEO summits, hosted Jeffersonian dinners for awesome engineers and connected tech founders with the people or information they need to grow.

Show Highlights Shannon shares her journey through venture capital into angel investing. We talk about our shared interest in getting more women to invest and invest in female founders including the statistics around this. We discuss the importance of getting girls to see what is possible by exposing them to investing, startups, entrepreneurship, and technology. We talk about this being an economic opportunity and the importance of encouraging men to join us in investing in women and encouraging more exemplar men in this awakening. If Shannon could wave a magic wand and change something in this world, she would encourage people to speak; your voice is needed. Terri’s Key Takeaway Investing in women will create trillions of dollars in economic opportunity. It is not a zero sum game.
