His numbers are all over the place. Most of the stats he provides are for executives and investors which don't require STEM degrees, yet he uses STEM graduation as his initial stat.

I don't even know what this means:

"0% of partners at some of our largest Bay Area VC firms are women"

So > 0% of partners of the largest Bay Area VC firms are women, since he qualifies the statement with "some"?

I think it means that there are large firms whose partners are 100% male.
