Each week, we use this newsletter to highlight members that make up this community.

This week we had on Tasha Kim (@natashajuliakim) with Marcy Venture Partners.

Marcy invests in consumer businesses and mass-market brands that resonate with culture across products and services, media, and technology. Tasha heads up a lot of the firms' sourcing and evaluation efforts, and she also regularly shares her thoughts through her Substack.  

In this talk, we ask Tasha about:

• Her co-authored consumer trends report and the findings from that piece

• Collaborating on external projects with other investors

• Social 3.0 and the ability to interact with online brands and influencers

• The intangible value of brand-led communities
