Author Profile

Arian Simone is a serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, investor, best-selling author, and international speaker. Arian is the Co-Founder and General Partner of the Fearless Fund, a $25MM venture capital fund investing in women of color-led businesses seeking pre-seed, seed level, or series A financing. Fearless Fund partnered with peer coaching platform The Cru and the Tory Burch Foundation for a multi-phase program that will provide grants between the size of $10,000 - $20,000, resources, and peer coaching services to women of color-led businesses. Arian is also on the board of directors for the fashion brand Steve Madden.

She received her MBA from Florida A&M University and has over 17 years of entrepreneurial experience from pioneering and growing a successful PR and marketing firm that included billion-dollar corporate clients, such as Sony Pictures, Walt Disney, Universal, and more to founding the Fearless Platform in 2010 with a mission of inspiring entrepreneurial women.

Fearless Fund invests in under-resourced entrepreneurs including women of color led businesses seeking pre-seed, seed level or series A financing. Our mission is to bridge the gap in venture capital funding for women of color founders building scalable, growth aggressive companies.

We know that companies with a female founder perform 63% better on average than all-male founding teams (FIRST ROUND CAPITAL, 2015). Despite a greater potential to produce higher returns, women are historically underfunded, particularly women of color.

In 2018, U.S. companies raised a total of $130B in VC funding, yet only 2.2% of that total went toward female-founded companies and less than 1% of total funding was allocated toward businesses founded by women of color (FORTUNE, 2018 & GIRLBOSS, 2019).

Fearless Fund was established to address the gap that exists in venture capital funding for WOC-led businesses and to finally push the needle on the abysmal statistics that drive the current narrative for WOC-led businesses today.
