In this episode of The Exit: Xandra Laskowski, founder and CEO of Osea Angel Investors, shares her journey from tech industry veteran to angel investor.

After retiring in 1998, she started a family office in 2008 and began angel investing in 2013.

Xandra discusses key criteria for startup investments, including the importance of founders having prior exit experience and maintaining two years of runway.

She emphasizes the critical role of early exit planning, strategic market positioning, and maintaining strong metrics for successful scaling.

Drawing from her experience investing primarily in female-founded companies, Xandra highlights the challenges and opportunities in healthcare tech, sustainability, and financial technology sectors.

Despite seeing positive trends in female founder representation through her syndication partners, she acknowledges the persistent challenge of only 2% of funding going to women-run companies.

For more details and insights from her entrepreneurial journey, listen to the latest episode of The Exit.
