Kira Colburn ^{Top-Executive}

I help brands build and grow their presence. With a strong focus on storytelling and strategic content, I work closely with VCs and high-growth startups to craft narratives amplifying their unique value propositions that resonate with founders, LPs, VCs, and the broader tech ecosystem.

Coming from a background in tech PR, I’ve always thrived on juggling multiple projects at once. Now, I lead SOSV's global marketing initiatives, overseeing everything from content, communications/PR, and events.

What I’m most known for:
▪️Authoring Work-Bench’s Enterprise Weekly Newsletter, growing it to 35K+ subscribers, packed with the top enterprise news, events, tactical content, and a list of fundings.

Some of my proudest career moments:
▪️Supporting execution on the SOSV Climate Tech Summit, which garnered over 10K RSVPs and featured top VCs and founders in the climate space.
▪️Created the 'Work-Bench #Womenterprise Report,' the first data-driven report to dive into the gender gap in enterprise software, which earning over 1K views and media coverage in TechCrunch and Wall Street Journal
▪️Increased newsletter subscribers by over 15,000 and improved overall engagement by 18%
▪️Enhanced Work-Bench Twitter engagement by 60%, and expanded blog content by 60%
▪️Executed Fifth Wall's Fund II media launch with 50+ articles published and 1B+ total online readership
▪️Spearheaded well over 200 events throughout my career

But this job isn’t just about marketing. It’s about connecting people with the information and resources they need to succeed...whether it’s helping portfolio companies get the right exposure or curating the most relevant resources for the community.
