About this listen

Finding the right venture capitalist to back your start-up is a challenge. Even if you manage to get backing, you want your VC to be a partner, not some dictator who will undermine your vision and take control of your life's work. Jeffrey Bussgang is one of a very few people who have played on both sides of this high-stakes game. Now he draws on his unique perspective to offer high-level insights, colorful stories, and practical advice gathered from his own experience as well as from interviews with dozens of the most successful entrepreneurs and VCs. He reveals how to get noticed, perfect a pitch, and negotiate a partnership that works for everyone.

This book is great for people about to embark on venture capital journeys, but also very good for people about to start a company that might need venture capital.

It provides nice insight into the inner-workings of a VC firm which is invaluable for anyone working in a startup. This is a book I will revisit at least once, but for now it's helped guide the next step of what I'm working on.

Very Good, Easy to Listen to
