Welcoming Liz Hart to Equal Ventures!
One of the most exciting things about building a company is the opportunity to bring incredible people together for a shared purpose. As a startup ourselves, we believe talent is the lifeblood of our business and that every hire represents an opportunity to strengthen that shared purpose.
With that, we’re excited to announce the addition of Liz Hart to our team.
Liz joins us from Bain, where she spent time across private equity, financial services, CPG and more. Liz was also heavily involved in initiatives ranging from Green Team, focused on office sustainability projects, to BGLAD, the LGBTQ+ affinity group, while at Bain. Prior to Bain, Liz also spent time honing her analytical skills at Bank of America, but has demonstrated a passion for entrepreneurship since her days at venture-backed startup FreshAir Sensor. Outside of the workplace, Liz has also demonstrated a deep passion for climate justice across New York City, including volunteering for food security organizations in Brooklyn. Liz received her undergraduate degree from Dartmouth, where she studied computer science, neuroscience and government.
We first met Liz earlier this year and were immediately impressed with her passion for our core theses. Liz demonstrated tenacity, hustle and creativity throughout each step in our process, as she navigated research processes on topics ranging from women’s health to warehousing labor marketplaces. Liz leveraged her network across the operating world, deftly combining qualitative and quantitative thoughts to pull unique insights and unpack complex business models. Liz’s strong performance was echoed by those she’s professionally collaborated with in the past, leaving us all the more excited about her joining our team.
At Equal, Liz will be leveraging those same research skills as an Associate focused on all five of our key sectors: climate, retail, supply chain and logistics, insurance and benefits and the care economies. Please join us in welcoming Elizabeth Hart to the Equal team and the NYC venture community!
