Show Notes

Adapting to situations, staying energized throughout the day, and building trust to deal with challenges. Marta shares with us her adventure of being a full-time working mum with two young children.

Marta Higuera is Managing Director and Partner at BCG Digital Ventures, the corporate innovation and venture building arm of BCG, dedicated to launching and investing in game-changing businesses. Prior to Digital Ventures, she co-founded real estate tech startup OpenAgent, one of Australia’s successful tech companies and recognized as Deloitte’s Tech Fast 50 ANZ and APAC.

An innate pathfinder, Marta reveals how staying flexible and having the right support system helps navigate life’s challenges - such as starting a company while on a sailing expedition in the Mediterranean sea, fundraising while pregnant and during delivery, and relocating to Singapore on 24-hour notice.
