I’m putting together a list of investors who are open to and/or actively investing in founders without a warm intro. In the spirit of building a more thriving and transparent tech ecosystem and a resource to founders, particularly those who are underrepresented, submit your details here: https://bit.ly/3hPKJOPIf you're not an investor, Elpha community — do your thing and spread the word: https://twitter.com/YBelyayeva/status/1287503390990381056I will share the final spreadsheet shortly (and widely).

Hi founders! An update: there are plans to develop a home for this, outside of Airtable. Curious, what would you want the resource to be called?
