Lewis Burik
Lewis Burik is the co-founder and CEO of DubClub, a Chicago-based platform that connects amateur sports bettors with vetted professional handicappers, or 'cappers,' through subscriptions delivered by text, email, and Discord. A former Stanford inside linebacker who walked on to the Cardinal, Burik started DubClub in 2021 with two college teammates after watching a friend struggle to find trustworthy betting picks online. The company has since grown to roughly 1.5 million fans, crossed $95M+ in lifetime GMV, and raised a $7.5M Series A led by Renegade Partners in 2024, turning a fragmented corner of the creator economy into a profitable marketplace.
Charlie Woodward
Charlie Woodward is the CEO and co-founder of Natter, an AI-native conversation intelligence platform that runs thousands of simultaneous 1:1 video conversations to capture the voices of employees, members, and customers at scale. A former Uber business development executive and BBC head of commercial partnerships, Woodward started Natter in 2021 as a remote-work 'virtual watercooler' and pivoted it into an enterprise tool that replaces surveys and focus groups, returning themes and sentiment within hours. In April 2026 Natter raised a $23M Series A led by Renegade Partners and moved its headquarters from London to New York.
Renata Quintini
Renata Quintini is a Brazilian-American venture capitalist and co-founder of Renegade Partners, a $228M early-stage VC firm she launched in 2020 with Roseanne Wincek. Known for coining the 'Supercritical Stage' - the critical post-product-market-fit phase before full-scale growth - she brings two decades of investing experience from Felicis Ventures and Lux Capital, where she backed companies generating over $40B in enterprise value at exit, including Dollar Shave Club, Cruise Automation, Warby Parker, Wise, and Glossier. A Stanford-trained lawyer and MBA, three-time state karate champion, and Bossa Nova guitarist, Quintini is one of the rare women who runs her own venture fund.
