Highlights
- You don’t sell, you create the environment for people to buy.
- When something very new comes along, you have to go through phases of a shock absorber, a bridge, and a springboard.
- We work with many French Founders like Nicolas Julia at Sorare, a company focused on NFT-backed football collector’s cards.
- Look at Steve Jobs’ keynote speech for the iPad here. There’s so much to learn from that about introducing the new with the familiar.
- Check out James Vincent’s podcast “Fast Company“, and his episode with Brian Chesky from Airbnb here.
- Our equity is storytelling, so it’s not just money. It’s money with a point of view. Check out Fndr’s new VC fund announced at Slush here!
