Nina Robinson
FUND DIRECTOR
Nina (She/Her) is a financial activist, capital convener, and creative. She is passionate about building the conditions for an economy rooted in justice and joy by embracing transformative practices that build Community Wealth creation and promote healing for Black, Indiegneous, and People of Color communities and Mother Earth. Nina's journey to this work started in technology and evolved into social entrepreneurship, community finance, and impact investing.
As a portfolio manager, she has served as a Board Member and advised numerous small businesses on growth strategy and raising integrated capital including philanthropic, and non-extractive equity investment, via private placement, crowdfunding and Title III crowd-investing platforms. Nina served as a Buen Vivir Fund Fellow, a journey that allowed her to draw wisdom from indigeous, global leaders rooted in the solidarity economy, and an RSF Social Finance Integrated Capital Fellow working in partnership with wealth holders seeking to restore justice in their investments.
Nina received her MBA from the Lorry I. Lokey School of Business at Mills College, and holds a Bachelor's degree in High Technology Management from California State University. Nina holds a Certificate for Board Directorship from the Anderson Graduate School of Business at UCLA. Nina sits on the RUNWAY Credit Committee, a Board Member of the Real People's Fund, and Advisory Board member for JustBe, a Black women entrepreneur collective. When she isn't working towards economic justice, you can find her veganizing her favorite dishes, exploring new beaches, and spinning soulful records around the world as Nina Sol.
Inspired by infusing joy into every aspect of the work, Nina resonates with Toni Cade Bambara words that “The role of the artist is to make the revolution irresistible.”
