A 32-year-old investor hotshot just became partner at $550 million Dawn Capital. Here's her view on investing in enterprise startups, Europe's hottest market right now.

found that most of the top decision-making roles in venture capital are held by men.

SG: Venture capital and tech more generally have a poor track record on diversity. Do you see improvements?All of the asset classes I worked in, whether it's M&A or private equity or venture have been very male dominated. And not only male, I'd also say, white and have a certain socio-economic background.

I think what's hard is retaining diverse talent, and enabling them to be successful. That's partially around policies you can put in place to retain people. And the way diverse talent is treated. So I think if you look around at a lot of firms… there will be many [women] associates but not many partners. I think it's down to the policies… whether that's maternity, around equal pay, whether it's about empowerment of women.
