Ebony Brown
Early-stage Investor | Former Partner at Rethink Education ($300M AUM)
About me
I’ve supported hundreds of founders grow from 0 to 1: ∙ Partner at Rethink Education ($300M AUM VC fund) ∙ Director at Village Capital, designing GTM strategy workshops for hundreds of founders I’ve written checks. I’ve sat on boards. I’ve watched founders raise — and watched them stall. I know exactly what separates the two. Now I help founders make their next round feel inevitable, not reactive. And I help allocators stop leaving purpose on the table. Most founders don’t lose rounds because of a bad deck. They lose because of: ∙ Positioning that doesn’t match what investors are pattern-matching for ∙ Misaligned milestones that don’t build investor conviction ∙ Missing relationships with the right check writers Most family offices and foundations don’t fail at impact investing because of bad intentions. They stall because of: ∙ Endowments misaligned with mission ∙ No framework for evaluating emerging managers ∙ False trade-offs between returns and values What Founders Book Me For: ∙ Fundraising strategy (6-12 months before your raise) ∙ Positioning: why you are uniquely qualified to solve this urgent problem ∙ Milestone mapping for your next round ∙ Unspoken investor truth on your business ∙ Investor relationship strategy What Allocators Book Me For: ∙ Endowment and foundation investment strategy ∙ Emerging manager evaluation and selection ∙ Values-aligned portfolio construction without sacrificing returns ∙ Vetting impact funds and emerging managers ∙ Fund strategy & thesis development ∙ Venture diligence frameworks What You’ll Get: ∙ Pattern recognition from 65+ portfolio companies and 12 direct investments ∙ Honest feedback with clear next steps ∙ Fewer wasted investor meetings ∙ A perspective from someone who has actually been in the room The best founders and allocators I know don’t wait until they’re stuck to ask for help.
