Active Founders

“Last year there was about five hundred billion dollars invested in venture capital, one or two percent of that came from active founders. Most of it came from institutional VCs”

“Active founders have the best deal flow. That's actually where VCs get most of their deal flow and they have the most fresh and relevant operating experience.”

“When you're a venture capitalist and you are also an active founder, it gives you a certain kind of cache and a certain credibility that I think that really resonates with founders”
