She is the founder of Scroobious, a relationship-first capital access platform, and the author of Fundraising for The Rest of Us. Allison also co-authored California's landmark Fair Investment Practices by Venture Capital Companies Law and serves on multiple boards. Prior to her work in venture advocacy, she co-founded a medtech company spun out of MIT, raising nearly $10 million and bringing an FDA-registered product to market—an experience that ultimately revealed the deep systemic inequities in funding that shaped her mission today. In this episode, Allison shares her firsthand experience navigating the venture capital landscape and the pivotal moment that exposed the disparities founders face—when the all-male team that acquired her company went on to raise significantly more capital. She and Catherine dive into the structural barriers that prevent underestimated founders from accessing funding, and how Allison is actively working to dismantle those barriers through policy, education, and community-building. The conversation highlights the importance of relationship-driven capital, transparency in fundraising, and empowering founders with the tools and knowledge they need to succeed. This episode is both an eye-opening look at the realities of venture funding and a practical guide for building a more equitable path forward. https://www.showherthemoneymovie.com www.sheangelinvestors.com Follow Us On Social Facebook @sheangelinvestors Twitter (X) @sheangelsinvest Instagram @sheangelinvestors & @catherinegray_investinher LinkedIn @catherinelgray & @sheangels #InvestInHer #FinancialW…","meta_description":"Today on the Invest In Her podcast, host Catherine Gray talks with Allison Byers, a founder, investor, and capital access advocate dedicated to creating a…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":1414,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/invest-in-her-with-catherine-gray-465315/episodes/fundraising-for-the-rest-of-us-with-allison-byers-and-host-catherine-gray-ep-489/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/invest-in-her-with-catherine-gray-465315/fundraising-for-the-rest-of-us-with-allison-byers-and-host-catherine-gray-ep-489.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
