With her first company Sittercity.com, entrepreneur Genevieve Thiers pioneered the digital intersection between babysitters and the parents who desperately needed them. As a female founder, Thiers has navigated many of the same challenges that land in the lap of other women who also want to launch their own companies.
Since the sale of Sittercity.com in 2020, Genevieve Thiers has lent her expertise and support to female founders in the tech space as well as to women seeking political office. We recently caught up with the busy entrepreneur to learn more about her new venture in the entertainment arena and why the venture capital scales are still tipped in favor of male founders.
