Ladies who LaUNCH #7 with Robyn O'Brien

Join Lilie for a conversation with alumna Robyn O'Brien (MBA 1998) on her inspiring journey to change the American food industry, where she will speak candidly about her experiences. She always knew she wanted to create impact, and was unfilled with her corporate career. However, she intentionally leveraged each career opportunity - for better or for worse - and now is thriving in her dream role.

Robyn O’Brien is the Vice President of rePlant Capital, an impact investment firm, deploying integrated capital from soil to shelf in order to reverse climate change. The rePlant team is investing in privately held, deep impact opportunities while supporting American farmers.

Robyn was a founding team member of AIM/Invesco’s first hedge fund of $100+ million and a team member on their $20 billion Constellation Fund. She was an advisor to Paul Hawken’s “Drawdown” (published in April 2017) and has advised startups, banks, and multinationals, while working with global CEOs and management teams in the food industry. Robyn is also the founder of Do Good, a strategic advisory firm, and AllergyKids Foundation, which serves the 1 in 3 children with allergies, asthma, ADHD and autism. Random House published Robyn’s book, The Unhealthy Truth, in 2009, and her TEDx talk has been viewed by millions and translated into multiple languages. She received her BA from Washington and Lee University, her MBA from Rice University.
