WE@Yale Women Innovators Speaker Series with Crystal Etienne

Yale Women Innovators is a speaker series designed to foster community discussion, idea sharing, and networking in support of women and non-binary femme innovators across Yale's campus.

Crystal Etienne is a Black female businesswoman and the founder of Ruby Love: a femtech company that supports women living their best lives, even while on their period. Crystal is a leading entrepreneur, having secured the fourth largest round of capital funding in the history of any company founded by a Black woman. In addition to leading Ruby Love, Crystal has also launched a venture capital firm, CaJE, to serve as early financial support for Black women founded consumer businesses. As Crystal continues to innovate within the Femtech industry, she hopes to inspire and empower other Black women, especially those looking to launch their own business.

The series is produced by WE@Yale, a joint initiative of the Tsai Center for Innovative Thinking at Yale (Tsai CITY) and the Yale SOM Program on Entrepreneurship.
