The JCC of Greater New Haven and Yale University’s Joseph Slifka Center for Jewish Life present Learning with Locals, a series that engages the Greater New Haven community in conversations that reflect today’s most important topics.

Following five women over two years as they pitch VCs, build teams, bring products to market, fail and start again, SHE STARTED IT takes viewers on a global roller coaster ride from San Francisco to Mississippi, France and Vietnam. Along the way, it weaves in big-picture perspectives from women like investor Joanne Wilson; White House CTO Megan Smith; GoldieBlox CEO Debbie Sterling; and Ruchi Sanghvi, the first female engineer at Facebook.

There will be a talkback following the film by Cass Walker Harvey, Program Director of Social Entrepreneurship, Yale Center for Business and the Environment and Tsai Center for Innovative Thinking at Yale.
