Today is International Women’s Day, and I want to highlight and thank the incredible women of Hype. The fact there are now too many to name in one post is something I’m genuinely proud of, and a big part of why @hypepartners is what it is today. I’ve always believed the best companies reflect the world they operate in. Different backgrounds, cultures and perspectives make for better teams and better decisions. At Hype today, 45% of our senior leadership and heads of department are women. But days like today are also a reminder that as an industry we still have a long way to go. The crypto sector is still roughly a 75/25 split male to female, and leadership representation is much lower (around 6%). Some of the most talented founders, operators and leaders I’ve worked with in this industry are women. So today is simply a thank you to the brilliant women at Hype, and across the industry, who help push this space forward every day. You know who you are, and I’m grateful to work alongside you.
