An enormous stretch of opportunity

A Kauffman Fellow who’s spent 20+ years in entrepreneurship and VC, Maggie has a passion for activating ecosystems and catalyzing capital. As the founding partner of Iron Prairie Ventures, she enjoys guiding, advising and championing the innovators modernizing an industry that is fundamental to our national security and our way of life. Her commitment to service and pursuit of building on her grandfather’s legacy is indicative of the fund she’s steadfastly building brick by brick, one investment at a time.

Maggie’s deep and diverse background intersects at the crossroads of entrepreneurship and venture. She previously built and co-built funds for Portfolia, served as the managing director for ECJC’s Foundation Innovation Fund and invested in B2B enterprise tech during her time at Royal Street Ventures. She’s also helped women entrepreneurs and underestimated founders access support, experiential learning and capital through her roles at the Kauffman Foundation and University Venture Fund Crossroads. Maggie combines these experiences and her breadth of knowledge to identify industrial tech pioneers disrupting markets and elevating competition on a global scale.
