Looking to the sky with VC Elaine Stead

Elaine Stead is a Venture Capitalist, and is the Head of Blue Sky’s VC division. Elaine is not your traditional VC (the Patagonia vest wearing kind), but an embodiment of the new generation of young VC’s entering the game - former entrepreneurs with a nous and passion for technology and teams. You’ll discover that Elaine is unique in her understanding of the “game” that is venture capitalism, and has built an offering at Blue Sky that provides Australian entrepreneurs with rare access to Asia and the Americas. She is open and incredibly sharp with her wit (trust me, you should follow her on Twitter for the travel tales). But Elaine also displays incredible awareness and emotional intelligence - only attributes that could be fostered by her unique upbringing and career. You’ve probably heard Elaine articulate gems about what it takes to build a companies in many interviews now, So I hope that we’ve been able to capture a snapshot of her united theory of entrepreneurship for you.
