Next stop in the journey is how a VC pitch turned into a mentorship; then a member of our board. Thanks to Shot Ventures for the opportunity to share my experience.

This answer from Sajith really resonates! This is something you regularly ponder over early into VC. I wish I could go back and give more value add to every founder I spoke with :) Catch up on the AMA here: https://lnkd.in/gdeZ4_88

Investor databases are a great tool, especially for first-time founders. Roundtable is launching its European Angel Investor Database on Product Hunt today- check it out; it's currently 1st for today. I'm excited about this one because I've seen plenty of VC lists, but few that focus on angel investors. Thanks Evan and team for including me.

The # 1 red flag sabotaging your round? Exactly why more early-stage founders need to be prioritizing financial forecasting.

One of the hardest things to do as a startup founder or early-stage funder is to access and attract others who might also believe in your startup's dream and potential. The process of raising capital is not a two-week, two-month or even two-year process. Rather, it's a process that can take up three, five or even ten years or more before actually achieving a liquidity event. What is the value of "lifetime access" to a private company marketplace designed and operated to provide access to capital? Check out this opportunity, which is exclusive and time-limited (June 30). Invest in yourself, build a network, and engage with sources of private capital to enable you and your venture to take your big idea and make it a reality.

VCs: What is your immediate gut reaction when you see posts like this? Meme posts making fun of VCs show up in my feed every day. Whenever I see one, I go to the comments to see if any VCs have responded, but they almost never do. Is that because you think these posts refer to other VCs but not you? Do you take them personally or laugh them off? It's interesting that I never see VCs posting memes about delusional founders (also, let's be honest, great subjects for parody)--probably because doing so could make it harder to get into deals, but I'm just guessing. Anyone want to weigh in on this? https://lnkd.in/gNNDEUTj

Investors pitching to founders… an exercise I truly enjoy, as the relationship between investors and founders should always be a two-way street. Just as founders carefully choose their investors, investors should also take the time to demonstrate their value beyond capital. The right chemistry, shared vision, and mutual respect are key to building a strong, long-term partnership. Great sharing the stage with Rutvik and Achraf Khallouli. Tinhinane BOUSSAID Bpifrance
