For Gale Wilkinson, the managing partner of Vitalize Venture Group, past business failures are a key part of helping her portfolio founders succeed.

But Wilkinson never despaired and never slowed down. She founded Vitalize Venture Group in 2012, originally called IrishAngels, an angel-investing network affiliated with Notre Dame, where she was an adjunct instructor teaching early-stage investing. And she found her stride. Vitalize Fund I is now its own $16 million vehicle investing in scalable software companies such as Placer.AI and The Project. Meanwhile, IrishAngels has become a 270-strongnetwork that invests in business-to-business and business-to-consumer startups and has backed companies such as TradingView and Chime. Both are part of Vitalize Venture Group, and Wilkinson said she's led $50 million worth of investments through IrishAngels and her Vitalize fund combined.
