Hello

A little about me….

Kate Brodock is CEO of Women 2.0 and Founding Partner of W Fund. She has played an active leadership role in the women in tech ecosystem for the past decade, having led a global non-profit focused on women in technology and entrepreneurship as its President for several years.

She’s also an EIR at LaunchNY, and a mentor for Techstars. She enjoys putting her 15-year experience in the tech industry to work advising and mentoring startups.

She’s held previous roles as CMO of untapt, an AI-driven tech talent marketplace based in NYC, as President of Girls in Tech, a global organization for women in entrepreneurship, as Executive Director of Digital and Social Media as well as Adjunct Professor in PR and Marketing at Syracuse University, and founded and led the Other Side Group, an integrated marketing agency. She’s been in and around the the tech startup ecosystem as mentor, judge, advisor, investor and entrepreneur for her entire career.

Kate has spoken and been featured at numerous events, including SXSWi, Collision Conference, Fast Company Innovation Uncensored, NWX, and TEDx, and has been featured in Washington Post, Huffington Post, IBT, MSNBC, TechCrunch and Al Jazeera America. She holds a BA from the University of Rochester, an MBA from Goizueta Business School at Emory University and an MA in International Relations from the Fletcher School at Tufts University.

When she’s not doing all *that*, she’s a very non-professional (but adventurous!) athlete, an equally as non-professional musician (she was in a cool band once!), can be found outdoors in any weather — skiing, biking, hiking, sailing — loves a good meal with bubbly, craft beer and good friends, hilariousness and life. Her husband is a web-developer-turned-beer-guy and they now live on a hops farm in Upstate NY (he wishes she liked IPAs a little more).
