Just updated the @LoftyVentures founder/company stats, so thought I'd share the details...
If this shows anything at all, it clearly demonstrates that we (both angels & VCs) can all be doing a much better job supporting diversity within the startup community but it's a start

I’m a HUGE fan of Chicago & our tech community
Chicago is LITERALLY my investment thesis as a first-check angel investor but I refuse to be a cheerleader with blinders on
We need to fix our problems before it’s too late
