I get asked often what matters most when building a company today. There are a lot of traits that have always mattered, but one has become disproportionately important in this environment: velocity...
The definition of a “great” startup has changed. But many founders are still building like it’s 2018. A few shifts happened: 1) A $1B exit used to be the goal. Now it’s often just the baseline. 2)...
In the last 12 months, we invested in 8 companies, 5 were repeat founders. Before starting these new companies, those 5 had already: - Raised $200M+, IPO’d one startup, and sold another for 9 figu...
