 Hi I'm Jenny Donnellan and I am the Director of Publications and Marketing for Palisades Convention Management and I'm here with Consuelo Valverde who is the founder and managing partner of SV Latin Capital. She is a venture capitalist and has a lot of experience all over the world and one thing I wanted to ask you about Consuelo is how do you deal with all the challenges that you've met working as a venture capitalist and a woman all over the world? So I think well a lot of my previous experience you know as throughout my life you know as a student and an engineer and entrepreneur working in the government then immigrant into the US now a venture capitalist. I think through all those different situations life experiences that prepares you kind of you have certain traits in your personality and through life experiences you can have you know kind of get better at those traits and also learn new ones and with time through time you learn kind of which ones are your weaknesses and be more aware of them and try to also surround yourself with people that are smarter than you helps a lot and and that are different also and that see problem situations and opportunities from different angles so things that we might miss. Okay okay well on that note is there anything that stands out that you've learned from talking to our panelists today? Probably how much we have in common from other women despite that I mean not apart from the gender I'm not referring to gender you know that a lot of our experiences from different perspectives like you know like Lee that more in the corporate world Sam and R&D and you know a smaller company but getting acquired and all that yeah and also you in communications and everything yes so we all have similar experiences and in different scenarios or with our own different backgrounds and even different geographies where we grew up and developed and were raised and everything so I think from that that was that was also something that struck me how there are many things that were similar and of course we can always learn yeah you know and something that surprises us from the career of someone you know kind of what also happened but you felt you felt there was more in common than there was yes there were differences with it yes probably more in common yeah I felt that way too well thank you very much thank you thank you
