🚀 New Interview Drop! Featuring Ms Ellen Damaso — Venture & Capital Partner at Plus Ultra Capital Partners in Silicon Valley 🎙️
We sat down with Ellen who specializes in Climate Tech & Energy to unpack practical investing mindsets, smart long-term strategies, and how everyday investors can build resilient portfolios — no Wall Street degree required. 🧠💡
👉 Key takeaways:
✨ Start small, stay consistent: Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) beats emotional trading.
✨ Diversification isn’t optional: Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
✨ Knowledge before money: Financial education builds confidence and reduces costly mistakes.
✨ VC insights for everyone: Private markets have high risks and rewards — but due diligence is everything.
✨ Exciting future trends: Tokenization, which InveStar is working on could allow micro-investing in real-world assets.
Ellen’s journey and fund-level perspective show how mindset + informed action can change how young investors think about money. 💪

From Dhaka to Nasdaq: How InveStar is Rewriting Financial Education with AI
From Dhaka to Nasdaq: How InveStar is Rewriting Financial Education with AI
30/11/2025
🌍 Empowering Financial Literacy with Purpose, Technology & Heart 🌍
At InveStar, we had the privilege of sitting down with Ms. Celena Aponte, VP of Strategy & Development at the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center, to discuss how financial literacy can be reimagined as a tool for economic freedom and generational empowerment.
Celena’s journey — from building inclusive programs to designing ecosystems of opportunity — reminds us that financial education isn’t just about money. It’s about dignity, access, and self-belief.
💡 Key Learnings from the Conversation:
-True financial literacy starts with mindset transformation, not just financial knowledge. It’s about shifting from “I can’t” to “I can learn, earn, and grow.”
-Equity in finance begins by amplifying community voices — designing from within communities, not for them.
-Partnerships with purpose drive real impact when organizations align around shared values, not vanity metrics.
-When AI meets empathy, learning becomes not only scalable but deeply personal — empowering millions to make smarter financial decisions.
-The next chapter of financial inclusion will be written by founders and educators who pay it forward, using their experience to inspire the next generation.
