Jacqueline van den Ende is the founder and CEO of Carbon Equity.
Jacqueline went full circle in her hero journey starting by co-founding the first non-profit student run strategy consultancy in 2008 - De Kleine Consultant, still going strong today, then moving into private equity working as an associate for HAL investments (~€ 12.7bn net asset value) to then change gears and move to Manila, Philipines and be the CEO of Lamudi - a rocket internet company - growing a team from 2 interns to 100 FTE - just to realise that she wanted to be part of a more mission driven organisation and come back to the Netherlands.
After being a partner at the VC firm Peak Capital she decided that she still has some entrepreneurial energy and decided to found Carbon equity - the first alternative climate investment platform - with the mission of bringing billions into climate funds based on their emission reduction potential.
During this episode we discuss about a variety of topics ranging from building a high performing team to dealing with the impostor syndrome and where to hide your computer password.
This was an incredibly honest conversation on team building that any entrepreneur can learn from. Please enjoy my conversation with Jacqueline van den Ende.
