Mission Driven - Episode 17 - Amy Francetic - Buoyant Ventures

Amy Francetic, Managing General Partner & co-founder of Buoyant Ventures, joins Rick on Mission Driven in the last of our series about electrification. Amy’s career spans 25 years of high tech entrepreneurship, private equity, and research. Before founding Buoyant, a firm based in Chicago investing in digital climate solutions for energy, transportation, agriculture, water, and the built environment, she co-founded and served as CEO of Evergreen Climate Innovations, a tech accelerator.

In this episode, Amy discusses her path to co-founding Buoyant, a 100% female owned VC, investing in electrification, and some of the most exciting companies in the portfolio (drones, demand response management, space, and more!).
