Marketplaces: The Alluring Trap for Aspiring Entrepreneurs
Marketplaces: The Alluring Trap for Aspiring Entrepreneurs

How do you assess an investment opportunity?
For me, it starts with the founder(s). Who are they? What are they trying to do and why? What key experiences or insights have they had that's led them here? Then I tend to dig deeper into how they think about the problem they are solving and how their ideal customers think about it. Opportunity size and vision are rarely the issues for early founders - they've become excited by the size and scale of what they see. And with a good learning plan and execution they can start to make progress on the journey to creating a business of impact and capturing significant value.
