Walk through actionable strategies and tools you can use to solve some of today’s biggest supply chain challenges.

In this episode of The Checkout, we chat with Aubrie Pagano, General Partner at Alpaca VC, a New York based firm. The Alpaca VC fund, led by a diverse team of company builders, invests in technology that powers commerce in the physical and digital worlds. Before Alpaca, Aubrie built and sold her own DTC apparel and gifting brand, Bow & Drape. During this time, she experienced all the ups and downs of creating her own DTC brand.
