VCs are villains for the media. Some entrepreneurs view them as saviors. Many young folks want to become VCs to make a dent or “change the world.”
When I took a plunge into startups a decade ago, I wore all the above lenses to view the VCs. But the truth is somewhere in the middle.
This book does an excellent job of compiling the history of VCs. Doesn’t valorize or villainize or victimize VCs. It paints a good picture of what VCs do and why they do it. It also rightfully criticizes the lack of diversity and other follies. It also contains some damn good company founding stories.
Highly recommend it for business history enthusiasts.… (altro)
