What makes a great investor founder relationship. True value of a great investor goes far beyond investment. Investor - founder relationship is like any other partnership: it is built on mutual respect, vision, communication and commitment. Gautam Kapur | Puneet Malik #venturecapital #partnership #founders

Managing stress, conflicts while maintaining relationships with investors, employees - all depend on a founder’s emotional intelligence. EQ plays an important role in decision making process as it allows founders to think clearly while making critical decisions. At Chanakya, we seek founders who also possess emotional insight to lead with empathy. Gautam Kapur | Puneet Malik #venturecapital #startups #emotionalintelligence

Why We Believe in Founder-Market fit. Founder-market fit refers to the alignment between a founder’s background, experience, and passion with the market they are targeting. When founders have a strong understanding of the industry they are building in, they are able to bring invaluable insights. At Chanakya, we have seen this over time with founders who understand their market are better positioned to connect with customers, and pivot when necessary.

Pivots are hard. It’s tough to recognize the need for radical course correction. These changes are brought about by shifts in the industry, customer preferences, technological changes - usually by factors beyond the founder’s control. Pivots can take an emotional toll - giving up on an idea that was close to heart is never easy. Communicating the need for a pivot to all stakeholders is crucial and can be the deciding factor to a successful outcome. #venturecapital #pivot #founders Gautam Kapur | Puneet Malik
