MakerDAO is the decentralized autonomous organization that enabled and currently sustains the Maker Protocol, the largest decentralized finance protocol by total value locked that generates and maintains Dai, the first decentralized stablecoin. The Maker Protocol is an open-source smart contract system publicly deployed on Ethereum that anyone can use to generate liquidity by minting the Dai stablecoin. The tokens that sustain the Maker Protocol are MKR for governance, and DAI as the stablecoin * MKR is the governance token used by its holders to vote and decide on proposals that aim to improve or change the system. * DAI is the decentralized stablecoin hard pegged to the US dollar and backed by crypto and legacy finance assets. The Maker Protocol enables this liquidity via three main products: * Maker Vaults: A tool where anyone can deposit crypto assets as collateral and generate Dai as a loan against it. * Peg-Stability Module (PSM): A tool where any user can swap other stablecoins for Dai and vice versa. They can deposit stablecoins and receive Dai at a 1-to-1 rate, or deposit Dai and receive stablecoins held by the PSM at a 1-to-1 rate. * Direct Deposit Module (D3M): A wholesale credit line that provides immediate liquidity in Dai to lending markets in the decentralized finance space such as Aave. All the components that make the Maker Protocol work are supported and sustained by the decentralized, open community known as MakerDAO through a decentralized system of Governance powered by MKR token holders and Delegates.

'Moving women in tech forward. Together.'​ Ada's List is a group for women who are committed to changing the technology industry. By women we mean all women (trans, intersex and cis), all those who experience oppression as women (including non-binary and gender non-conforming people) and all those who identify as women. We're a group of 5000+ badass people who broadly speaking, work in science, technology, engineering or mathematics. A.K.A: work in or around the internet. Digital strategists, scientists, designers, physicists, mathematicians, makers, journalists, developers, service designers, sci-fi authors, tech journalists, rocket scientists, online campaigners - if you're a woman or identify as one, and work in a field related to the internet, then you have a community of peers who can help you shine. In short, Ada's List is an email-based community where members can: - talk off the record about professional, tech and science-related topics - share job listings (yeah, that’s right – we're creating a wicked pipeline of talented women across all of our industries and companies) - announce conference panels and calls for submissions - find talented ladies to write about…and maybe some sources of information - find support if you’re a co-founder, entrepreneur, freelancer, corporate innovator - get some informal mentoring - share cool, tech-related events

Currently, European VCs are not investing in women or diverse founders or firms at scale. They’re missing opportunities that we believe are lucrative, growth driven, and resilient. The lack of competition gives us an advantage because as other VC firms don’t look at these founders, we get First Look. Conversely, for founders who are women or diverse, there is a funding gap because there is an access gap. They aren't getting through the door to pitch. This creates an unparalleled opportunity to be positioned as their first investor. First Look was formed to solve four problems: 1. The lack of women and diverse investors in Europe; 2. Which causes a lack of investments in women and diverse entrepreneurs; 3. In order to capitalise on the $4 trillion in value currently being lost by not investing in these founders; 4. The potential for enhanced economic returns and alpha generated by investing in diversity across the different verticals. Our name speaks to our purpose, beliefs and values. We fundamentally believe that women and diverse entrepreneurs - where for us diversity is ethnicity, sexuality, gender, or socio-economic background - have enormous potential, and the vast innovation that these businesses will create is not being economically accelerated because they're not getting a look in. We exist to empower them as they look at the world differently.
