In Season 2's first episode, we dive into the world of angel investing and where exactly can you learn to become one.  Our guest is Tanya Rolfe, co-founder of Sophia (sophiawomen.com). Tanya’s 15-year legal career at some of the world’s largest law firms has honed her ability to influence and collaborate with people from diverse disciplines and backgrounds, She spent 7 years in Real Estate legal teams before moving into legal team management. Tanya then spent 8 years in Corporate M&A at both Simmons & Simmons and Norton Rose Fulbright in London.  Tanya founded the Ladies Investment Club in Singapore and grew a team of 40 female investors which enabled female investors to build their investment portfolio and credentials, while providing hard to access funding to female founders. She went on to launch a venture capital fund for women entrepreneurs and during her time at the fund, discovered the need for both more women investors and women entrepreneurs to be supported. Tanya believes in tapping into the largely untapped capital held by women through education and empowerment to both increase wealth held by women and to drive more capital towards diverse founders. Sophia was built to facilitate both of these things through it’s platform.  Outside of Sophia, Tanya is an avid cyclist and yoga enthusiast. Tanya also advises two start ups and mentors young founders.
