San Francisco, April 27th, 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM
If you're building a company, you don't have to do it alone — and you definitely shouldn't leave resources on the table.
Join us for our next Women Tech Meetup, where we're diving into the power of strategic partnerships and what it really means to scale together.
We'll explore how female founders can tap into hyperscaler platforms (like Microsoft) to unlock growth, visibility, and support that most founders don't even know exists (❗️).
What we're covering:
Why strategic partnerships are one of the most underleveraged growth levers for founders
How to win with hyperscalers — and where to start
Real resources, real opportunities, and how to actually access them
Whether you're early-stage or scaling fast, this is the room you want to be in.
Mountain View, April 16th, 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM
I almost never do events outside San Francisco…
But this one? I’m making an exception (Mountain View, here we go!)
Join me at the ThinkingData launch at the Computer History Museum — one of the most iconic venues in Silicon Valley.
And yes, we’re going straight into it:
- AI inside the enterprise
- What actually gets funded in AI
We’re bringing together an incredible group of leaders across AI, enterprise, and investment, including Peter Danenberg, Josh Sirota, Founder & CEO at Eragon, Linda Sheng, GM at MiniMax, Ethan (Yudian) Zheng, CTO at Jobright.ai, Richard Xu, Partner at Starting Gate Fund, Keith Zhai, Co-Founder at TinyFish, and Chris Han, Co-Founder at ThinkingData.
Plug & Play, April 17th
I'm speaking at the AI Investment Summit + Demo Day — Silicon Valley, April 16–17!
This is one of the most exciting events happening in the Bay right now — a curated, high-signal gathering of founders solving billion-dollar problems alongside active investors.
$14 trillion in AUM on stage. Speakers managing $1.6 billion in VC funding. Speakers from BlackRock, Pear VC, Replit, TikTok, Google, and more!
Deep tech demos, high-signal networking, live pitch competitions, and direct conversations with the investors shaping the next wave of AI venture creation.
Women founders — the organizer is actively looking for more female founders to pitch.

A must-watch episode for all my women in tech!
“Everyone wants to be rich…
but what if that’s the wrong goal?”
It’s something we all think about —
but don’t talk about enough.
In this episode of Talks with Dasha, we break down one of the most misunderstood topics in tech and life: money, wealth, and what actually matters.
I sit down with Marla — former private banker, ex-JPMorgan and BlackRock executive, Microsoft operator, and now founder — to unpack why chasing a number won’t bring the fulfillment most people expect.

See you out there in space,
