Profile
Julie Wroblewski
Co-Founder & Managing Partner
Julie spent over a decade as an investor and advisor with institutional-scale family offices and mission-focused organizations, including launching and leading the venture capital investment portfolio and strategy at Pivotal Ventures, an investment and incubation company created by Melinda French Gates to advance social progress in the United States.
In her roles, Julie has invested in pre-revenue startups, category-defining companies, and industry-leading venture capital firms, and she’s built partnerships across sectors to seed innovation in emergent markets.
She is a frequent speaker on purpose-driven venture capital, gender lens investing, and the care economy.
Her interests as an investor have been shaped in part by her role as a family caregiver, and her earliest work experiences as a helicopter-certified EMT and caregiver for older adults and the disabled.
Julie is a Kauffman Fellow and member of All Raise, and resides in Los Angeles with her family.
