Daryn Dodson is the founder of Illumen Capital, a venture fund of funds that seeks to invest in the best impact fund managers and takes them through a process to reduce implicit bias in their business and investing decisions.

Our conversation covers Daryn\\u2019s early experience with discrimination, work backing more than 1,000 entrepreneurs in post-Hurricane Katrina New Orleans, Board work at impact-focused Calvert Funds, and launch of Illumen. We discuss Illumen\\u2019s three pillars of academic research, investing in the thesis, and training managers across hiring, investing and Board selection \\u2013 all with the aspiration to become better investors and take advantage of a huge inefficiency in capital allocation.

Please enjoy, my conversation with Daryn Dodson of Illumen Capital in this continuation of our mini-series on Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.
