Daniella Pierson, the founder of The Newsette newsletter, faced rejection and mockery from VCs before building a multimillion-dollar business.
She wants to help other 'uninvestable' women secure venture capital funding through her new organization, CHASM, to close the gender gap in VC funding.
The Newsette had a team of 14 and generated $40 million in revenue in a year. Pierson also launched Wondermind with Selena Gomez.
CHASM, launched on May 20, offers mentorship and networking opportunities for aspiring female entrepreneurs with a $25,000 membership fee.
