Leslie Goldman Tepper

Co-Founder and General Partner, The Artemis Fund

About

Leslie Goldman Tepper followed an unusual path from opera singer to corporate attorney to venture investor, giving her what she calls an enriched perspective on founders and deals. She co-founded The Artemis Fund after personally angel investing in around 60 companies, and intentionally built an LP base that's roughly half women by educating first-time female limited partners one coffee at a time so they could participate as capital owners rather than just philanthropic donors.
