Kirsten Green is the Founder and Managing Partner of Forerunner, the consumer-focused venture capital firm partnering with the ambitious entrepreneurs pioneering a new generation of business. In an unpredictable consumer landscape, Kirsten’s 25+ years of evaluation and investment success stems from a combination of product savvy, consumer insight and a thesis-driven approach that has been the basis of all her investments — from pre-revenue startups to multi-billion-dollar enterprises. Under Kirsten's leadership, Forerunner has raised over $2.3 billion in assets under management in just ten years, and invested early in Chime, Faire, Hims&Hers, OURA and The Farmer's Dog. Kirsten currently serves as a member of the Board of Directors at Faire, Glossier, Ritual, Duckbill and Daydream, among others, and previously served on the board of Modern Fertility, Dollar Shave Club and Bonobos — all of which saw notable acquisition outcomes. Kirsten is also a member of the Board of Directors at Nordstrom, Inc (NYSE: JWN) and the National Venture Capital Association.
