This is our Wednesday show, where we sit down with a guest, talk about their work and dive deep into the rest. Mary Ann and Alex invited Marisa Warren onto the show. You may remember that we discussed her new fund — ALIAVIA Ventures’ first — on the show the other week.

We wanted to talk with her to go over a few key topics that we care a lot about:

• The current state of venture investment in women; why the numbers aren’t changing, and what she thinks could make a difference.
• When startups should target their second market, and how.

The two themes are not as far apart as they may initially seem. ALIAVIA invests in startups based in the US and Australia that have at least one female founder, and also helps their portfolio companies tackle new markets. It was a really interesting, and fun conversation. Enjoy!

Acompáñanos con Santiago Zavala, Global Managing Partner de 500 Startups, el fondo de inversión que ha invertido en compañías como Canva, Reddit, Clip y Konfío. 

Si solo tienes un minuto, lo más importante que pueden aprender operadores, inversionistas y fundadores de 500 es lo siguiente: 

1. Si el núceleo de tu negocio es la tecnología, tienes que contar con los recursos para desarrollarla. En 500 solo invierten en cofundadores no técnicos cuando su servicio principal no es tecnológico. 
2. Un buen inversionista sabe que te acompañará en el largo plazo. El equipo de 500 se reúne con las startups de su portafolio hasta dos veces a la semana por varios años para apoyarlos estratégica y tácticamente. 
3. La mejor forma en la que te puede aportar un fondo de Venture Capital es con consejos, conexiones y oportunidades. En 500, el capital es una minúscula parte de su aportación a las startups. 
4. Las barreras de entrada nunca han sido tan bajas. Santiago nos cuenta cómo el ecosistema de emprendimiento ha propiciado un círculo virtuoso donde se desarrollan servicios y productos nuevos que a su vez propician nuevos emprendimientos que entran al ecosistema y abaratan drásticamente cómo comenzar uno nuevo.
