Meet Theresia Gouw, First Female Billionaire Venture Capitalist
Theresia Gouw, a longtime Silicon Valley financier and co-founder of Acrew Capital, has become the United States’ first and only female billionaire venture capitalist. That deal proved to be one of the most financially rewarding in venture history, and Gouw’s stake in Accel’s fund significantly contributed to her personal wealth. Gouw has also co-founded All Raise, a non-profit aimed at advancing women in venture capital, and introduced the Diversify Capital Fund, the largest of its kind focused on increasing equity ownership among underrepresented communities in tech.
