 \n\nArlan Hamilton’s story is one made for the movies. In 2015, she was 
 homeless, sleeping on the floors of the San Francisco airport, and dreaming 
 of making it big in the venture capital world.\n \nAs a gay black woman, 
 she knew she didn’t fit the typical mold of a VC superstar, but she also 
 knew that there were countless other founders and funders whose potential 
 remained underestimated and untapped because they were different. \n\nWith 
 zero connections in Silicon Valley and a single laptop, she founded 
 Backstage Capital—a seed-stage investment fund that has since garnered 
 national recognition and invested \n$5 million in more than 100 start-ups 
 founded by minorities.\n\nJoin Hamilton at INFORUM, where she will share 
 her incredible story of triumph in the face of systematic adversity, and 
 how she defied expectations in hopes of inspiring an entire industry to 
 change for the better. This conversation will be moderated by Megan Rose 
 Dickey, senior reporter at TechCrunch.\n\nThe Commonwealth Club
