About Keynote Speaker Sophia Amoruso

Founder, investor, and New York Times bestselling author Sophia Amoruso is the epitome of a modern entrepreneur. Amoruso rose from obscurity to found Nasty Gal, an e-commerce brand that began in a garage and scaled to over $100 million in capital. Amoruso’s grit, intelligence, creativity, and hands-on approach have made her a sought-after business keynote speaker and investor. She has spoken at LA Tech Week, TechCrunch Disrupt, NTWRK, and more. 

Amoruso’s amazing story first appeared in her New York Times bestselling memoir #GIRLBOSS, chronicling her early life and experiences as a founder. The book was later adapted into the 2017 Netflix series Girlboss, starring Britt Robertson. 

For her business success, she has been featured on the cover of Forbes magazine’s 2016 “America’s Richest Self-Made Women” issue and also featured in Fortune “40 under 40,” Forbes “30 under 30,” Inc. “30 under 30,” and Fast Company’s “Most Creative People in Business.”

Amoruso has since authored two other books—Nasty Galaxy and The Girlboss Workbook—and founded Business Class, a membership-based digital entrepreneurship community and course for founders, freelancers, solopreneurs, creators, and side hustlers.

Today, she has evolved into Sophia Amoruso 3.0, the founder and general partner of Trust Fund, an early-stage venture fund focused on pre- and seed-stage companies. Her fund has picked winners like Liquid Death, the producer of the popular canned mountain water from the Alps, which has since scaled to a billion-dollar company.

We had the honor of having Sophia Amoruso as our keynote speaker and she was AMAZING! Everyone loved her, the information she gave as a speaker has the attendees still raving days after the event. She was beyond kind, gentle, very easygoing and a complete joy to work with. She made every guest feel amazing. Her expertise in business is unmatched and her character speaks volumes as to the reason the universe has granted her such favor. I actually would love for her to come back because I can’t even think of another speaker better to follow after her. So here’s my take “She’s going to be a hard act to follow”… we appreciated how humble, prompt and kind Sophia was.
