Today, Base10 Partners is honored and humbled to announce that we have become the first Black-led venture capital firm to cross $1B assets under management. @kenrickcai / @Forbes shares details on our new $460M early-stage fund: forbes.com/sites/kenrickc…

At Base10, we work with founders solving problems for the 99%. Our Managing Partner, Ade, recently sat down with @fuelmckinsey, A McKinsey Company, to share more about how we got started and to share his unique perspective on purpose and investing.
