Ep. 25 Preparing for Board Service and Diverse VC Investing with Finance Leader Adela Cepda

C2CEO Career-Comeback Stories

Adela Cepeda joined our podcast with C2CEO Podcast host Cary Broussard and guest co-host Artura Taylor. Adela Cepeda is a corporate and public finance consultant and chair & founder of Angeles Investors. She is one of 50 Most Powerful Latinas named by ALPFA. Adela shares her compelling Cinderella story and plainly describes her start as a U.S. immigrant wasn't easy. With hard work, perseverance, her parents' dreams, and Adela's vision for herself, she has achieved what very few women have done to secure high-level corporate board positions and a successful VC fund for Latinx start ups. Adding a unique and relevant perspective to Cary's interview with Adela is Artura Taylor. Taylor founded Taylor Distribution Group in 2009 after leaving McDonald's Corporation. Taylor Distribution holds $15 million+ in gov't and private contracts spanning life sciences, research and development, wastewater treatment, higher ed, and pharmaceuticals.
