“Lebone has been an integral part of MYAVANA’s growth when it came to critical moments of fundraising to capitalize on the market value we have created through our technology and needing the resources to become sustainable in the long-term. Not only did she help me bring in capital during a major growth stage for the business, she also provided me with wise counsel as I navigated major contract opportunities that increased the valuation of the company.”

“Lebone created that value for us as a bootstrapped company through her expansive network, decades of corporate and start-up experience, and calmness in the face of economic adversity. She guided us through a pivot during a pandemic and looming recession. Due to her coaching we only needed to bootstrap for just under two years. I can only imagine the exponential value she can provide by investing in founders like us.”

Having never started a business before, Lebone has helped guide us to answer critical questions from how we pay employees when we are not yet profitable to making sure what we are creating adds value and has product market fit.
