When Maren Bannon and Jennifer Neundorfer first launched their venture capital firm, Jane VC, they wanted to end the practice of “warm intros” in tech. The goal was to back female founders who weren’t based in Silicon Valley, didn’t have rapport with top investors from their Stanford days and were largely being left out from venture capital as an asset class.

Fast forward to today, the firm has certainly delivered on its promise, backing 50 startups to date – 90% of which have a female founder. In 2020, the firm renamed itself to January Ventures to be more inclusive of women from diverse backgrounds.
