Message: I think it's fantastic and insprirational that women are starting to be recognized as some of the greats in Venture Capital. I know Ann Winblad has been mentioned, and I've read great things about Heidi Rosen as well. (SOFTBANK Venture Capital w3.svbc.com, also see her indepth personal website at w3.heidi.rosen.com.) The question I have is how to you 'break in' to a Venture Capital firm? I have been a senior level executive in 3 high tech startups (including the founder position) and I am very interested in getting involved with a Venture Capital firm. Has anyone else made this transition? Any helpful hints/mentors?
