In this episode of NiceTo's Startup Palette Show Live, proudly supported by Investment NSW, we dive into Maxine's remarkable journey from her unique upbringing by a single mother and entrepreneur in a multicultural environment to her ventures into startups and venture capital.

Maxine shares the lessons learned from her entrepreneurial mother, her experiences in the law field, and her eventual move to the U.S. to pursue venture-backed companies. She talks about her role in building a coaching business during COVID-19, her philosophy on success being emergent, and her mission to support underrepresented founders through her own fund.

This insightful conversation covers the challenges and triumphs of navigating different cultural and economic landscapes.
