While we don’t generally cover a lot of “Proptech” and “Fintech” in RealClues, my good friends Kenya Burrell-Van Wormer and Katherine (Kat) Winston who are part of our Awesome Females in Real Estate Conference, are venturing into the VC space. Their primary goal is to help the “underrepresented, underestimated, and underutilized” entrepreneurs, realtors, and innovators who have a great idea that can benefit the real estate industry and take that idea to market.

What’s especially remarkable about what they’re doing is that they are the first women of color to venture into this space.

If you or someone you know has a great idea that could help agents, lenders, MLSs, or other companies that serve the industry, please share this article with them. It could be a win-win for both that person and our industry.

Personally, I hope you will join me in wishing Kat and Kenya tremendous success.
