Brad Feld, the Co-Founder of Techstars, the Managing Director at Foundry Group (https://foundry.vc/blog/) and author of numerous books as part of the Startup Revolution series, the latest: Startup Boards (https://feld.com/books-on-startups-entrepreneurship-and-venture-capital/)
Brad joins Karen to share his fascinating journey from entrepreneur, starting his first businesses while still in college. Early success started him on his journey of discovery of how to lift up innovative startups by investing needed capital and assisting with time, resources, and sometimes more (patient) capital to achieve the goal of a successful exit. He shares his experiences from successes and failures along the way. Such a great opportunity to hear from an investor that began investing before the dotcom, navigating through a dark period for the venture space, the Great Recession and his recommendations for navigating our uncertain current economy.
