💐🏡 How do boutique VCs coexist with larger & long-established VCs? A recent Gründerszene article by Nina Anika Klotz dives into this topic, highlighting how the two entities work hand in hand. Earlybird Partner Dr. Hendrik Brandis explains “There are basically two ways to create value as a VC, the first is to utilize personal networks and expertise, and the second is to use intelligent systems and structures.

Both business models have their justification and will always coexist.” ⚡️ Differentiation is healthy in all markets, and the tech ecosystem is no exception! As described by Headline Partner Christian Miele “Micro VCs play a complementary role in a healthy tech ecosystem. The focus and scale of micro VCs do not overlap with those of large funds.” 👉 Read more here: https://bit.ly/3MvWwmG #Fundraising #Founders #Startups
