Tracy Gray Biography

Tracy D. Gray is a recognized leader in the financial sector's movement towards equity and justice. She is the Founder and Managing Partner of The 22 Fund, a venture capital fund focusing on women and minority-owned green tech manufacturing and exporting companies. Her focus is at the intersection of private capital and economic development, with a passion for solutions that move capital to women and Black, Indigenous, and people of color, particularly women.

Gray serves as a Board of Director of Applife Digital Solutions, Inc., a publicly traded, fully reporting start-up incubator and portfolio manager, and of the California State University, Dominguez Hills Philanthropic Foundation endowment, where she serves as Treasurer/Secretary on the Investment Committee. She is also a member of PGIM Real Estate's Impact Advisory Council.

She is part of Melinda Gates' Pivotal Venture's Women of Color Advisory Council and numerous global-steering committees focused on finance and multiple issues, including technology, climate, gender, race, and manufacturing. She is the first Social Impact Fellow at the UC Berkeley Haas Business School's Center for Equity, Gender, and Leadership. Gray was also an Executive-in-Residence at the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator and chaired its Diversity in Entrepreneurship Advisory Council.

In 2015, Gray delivered a TEDx Talk entitled "Why It's Time for Women to Be Sexist with Investment Capital." The response to her talk led her to create the nonprofit We Are Enough, whose mission is to increase the flow of capital to women entrepreneurs by educating women on how and why to invest in women-owned for-profit businesses.

Gray was named to Forbes' 50 Over 50 list and as one of the 50 Women of Influence in business in Los Angeles. She was appointed by the mayor of Los Angeles to serve on the city's Commission on the Status of Women, where she serves as President. She is featured in the book "200 Hundred Women: Who Will Change the Way You See the World" and the Robb Report article "Tracy Gray Invests in Women." In 2019, she received the Bad Ass Woman in Green award from the California League of Conservation Voters and the Women of Courage award from Youth Mentoring Connection.

Gray previously served as a senior advisor for international business to the LA Mayor; as an investment professional at a venture capital fund; and as a systems engineer on the Space Shuttle program. She holds a B.S. in Mathematical Science with an aeronautics emphasis from UC Santa Barbara and dual MBAs from Columbia University and UC Berkeley.
