The backstory

‍Four years ago I was on food stamps. Three years ago I was homeless and today I run a $4.5 million capital fund, with this course I want to save you hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars by teaching you fundamental lessons, rules of the road, and tips and hacks to skip the mistakes many entrepreneurs make.

‍This course is for you whether you have launched your company or not

‍Arlan shares the hard-won wisdom that she picked up on her remarkable journey from food-stamp recipient to venture capitalist, along the way, she inspires us all to defy other people’s expectations and to become the role models we’ve been looking for.

‍What’s backstage capital?

‍Less than 10% of all venture capital deals go to women, People of Color, and LGBTQ founders. Other VCs see this as a pipeline problem. We see it as the biggest opportunity in investment.

‍Backstage Capital has invested over $7M in more than 120 companies led by underrepresented founders.
