Years ago, the idea for Silicon Valley was cooked up in a car garage. Imagine: some of the most significant innovations started with a few people, a shared vision, and the right conversations. In 2025, these connections could be made at an EchoHer event. I felt that vision getting closer at our Angel Investing & Industry Trends Mixer. The conversations, the openness, the support, it was everything I dreamed of when I started EchoHer. Radhika Iyengar’s insights on AI and blockchain investments were incredibly transparent and personal. Her thoughtful take on AI ethics made me believe even more in the importance of the right values in tech. Jenny Xiao shared angel investing strategies so powerfully that I felt like I had absorbed hours of value in just a few minutes. Ravi Prakash's speech on women's empowerment touched a chord. We need more allies and advocates. For EchoHer, I want to create a safe space where you can build lifelong friendships. Today, you’re a founder. Tomorrow, you might be an investor. And no matter what stage you’re in, we have much to give each other. This event reminded me why I do this. Thank you to our hosts, speakers, volunteers, and everyone who showed up.
