Today we're talking with Molly Wood, managing director of Launch, an early-stage venture firm founded by tech investor Jason Calacanis. She also co-hosts the weekly podcast "This Week in Startups" with Calacanis.
Why she matters: Wood was previously the host and senior editor of "Marketplace Tech," a weekly radio show on NPR. She tells Axios she wanted to take a more active role in the climate tech industry, and Calacanis approached her about leading his firm's climate thesis.
