Thanks for sharing this video. In the past I have built a startup but failed, but I appreciate the experience gained because I had the opportunity to meet VC representatives and other startup founders who are currently big startups or companies in my country. I'm still very interested in startups and now I'm also interested to know more about VCs.
This podcast is timely. Thank you for sharing this info.

@@VentureCapitalfm How do VC firms find businesses to invest in and what does that process look like? Why should someone go with VC vs equity crowdfunding or a traditional business loan or bootstrapping?
Thanks a lot for this insightful video

What are you working on now Amar? - Jon
How does some young nobody bring “value” to founders This is commonly said advice but I don’t really understand how this is done theory
So basically, if you don't come from privilege, you're screwed.
What could be the chances for breaking into VC for someone working in IT building products for 10 yrs.. 🫣
