Give founders the tools we wished we had, when we were in their shoes.

As former founders and operators we needed help in four key areas: capital, revenue, talent, and product. Now as investors, we relentlessly hustle to deliver value in these four areas. We give our time liberally, listen intently, and take action immediately.

Seize advantage in a downturn.

The Covid-19 outbreak is unlike any previous crisis: traditional crisis-response approaches will not be sufficient. CEOs need to act now, and act aggressively. In this episode of Master Minds, Sharon Matthews discusses how companies can be more resilient in the face of an impending economic downturn.
