Former Facebookers take on Facebook
Equity - A podcast by TechCrunch, Mary Ann Azevedo, Kell, Theresa Loconsolo, Rebecca Bellan, Rebecca Szkutak
Hello and welcome back to Equity, TechCrunch’s venture capital-focused podcast, where we unpack the numbers behind the headlines. We had a lot to get through this week and may have ran over our time a little bit but it was worth it. First, we discussed Weekend Fund's second effort, a $10 million vehicle targeting early-stage upstarts. Led by Product Hunt founder and CEO Ryan Hoover, Weekend Fund raised a smaller debut angel fund a few years ago. Now they're back at it after deploying capital to Girlboss, TTYL, Headspin and more.
