Huge congrats @edsim for placing on the Midas Seed list for a third year

As @_IainMartin @Forbes wrote for his profile:

"As investors jockey to write earlier checks, Sim has long championed an approach he calls “inception investing” working with founders with little more than an idea to shape a business."

“If you have a founder with a crazy vision that might be two or three years ahead of what’s available today, that's when the magic happens,” says Sim, who has backed the likes of @snyksec @Superhuman @bigidsecure @kustomer

🙏🏼 to the amazing enterprise founders who have chosen @Boldstartvc as inception partners

@nikitabier strikes again with @dupedotcom (backed by @KindredVentures). Dupe lets you quickly find the best price for any furniture item, and soon any product.

[Nikita Bier @nikitabier]

Ladies & gentlemen, I’d like to introduce you to @dupedotcom

I worked closely with @ghoshal on the concept + design of this tool to find the best price for any furniture item.

It’s not perfect yet—but it will eventually intercept every transaction on the internet.

VC is not an asset class you can index. For 2x avg cash-on-cash return, allocators are better off investing into PE (quicker cash conversion). The most successful LPs work hard to identify and get access to those top decile (>3x) VC funds.

Great to be back to #Singapore 🦁🇸🇬! Catch-up with old friends and spend some time with our portfolio GP (in-person!). Definitely amazed by the caliber of people dedicated to not only driving innovation across #SEA but building businesses for the #World

Israel has long been one of the most vibrant tech hubs worldwide. But the downturn and political unrest have LPs wondering what the future holds for this tech hub.

We spoke Renana from @GroveVentures & Kobi from @GlilotP about the state of Israeli VC.
