Specialist, experienced, product-first, very early stage venture firms FTW. I’ve been discussing this since I first founded @iaventures and it’s the same at @gamechangersvc: an investment from us is a commitment, a partnership to help founders get from 0=>1. Then we help them

Underdiscussed: emerging managers helping each other. LP intros, operational advice, co-hosting events, sharing intel. Meanwhile too many large fund GPs often can’t be bothered. What they don’t realize: their reputation quietly takes a hit for it.

Everyday I read a lot of funding announcements. This is my periodic reminder that raising capital is not winning. Raising capital is a tool to help companies win. Don't confuse the cart for the horse.

Being right about a technology ≠ making money from it. People who bought Amazon at the peak of the Dotcom Bubble waited 10 years to break even. Cisco buyers waited 24. Timing is the variable most investors underweight and most founders under-plan for.
