From the Ground Up

from Margins from Managing Editor Magazine

In the season finale of Margins, we look at the role of influence in entrepreneurship — and we hear how three women are using their influence to drive change in their industries and communities. In our first interview, Kim Seals, general partner at The JumpFund, discusses what she looks for when investing in startups (7:46). Then, Chicago Media Project CEO Paula Froehle tells us what happened when Oprah Winfrey controversially pulled her name from the documentary "On the Record" right before its Sundance premiere (16:18). Finally, Resilia CEO Sevetri Wilson talks about what it was like raising money for her new business — and her ambitions for nurturing the startup and tech scenes in New Orleans (21:39).
