What does it take to recommend an early stage VC like Blume Ventures a startup investment? Yesterday, a few of us at Mesa School of Business got the chance to visit the Blume Villa to pitch why a particular startup is the right investment for Blume now. Here's a few learnings I gathered from the students who visited: 1. Founder market fit is the most critical aspect for early stage investors 2. For Blume, the selection priority is Team. TAM. Timing. Traction - in that order 3. The pitch is just as important as the product. A good pitch can carry and average product, a poor pitch can reduce the appeal of a good product This was a great opportunity provided to us by Mesa School of Business

The Bonds That Fuel Startup Success Take note of this powerful statement from Bryan Leach, CEO of Ibotta, Inc., towards investor Robin Li of Notable Capital: "Robin, you found us, advocated for us, invested in us, advised us, believed in us. Thank you. I don't think there's a finer venture fund than Notable Capital." These heartfelt words perfectly capture the invaluable role that hands-on, supportive investors can play in a startup's journey. Bryan Leach's public expression of gratitude underscores the profound impact these supportive investor relationships can have. As we continue to nurture our startup communities, let's embrace the spirit exemplified by Leach and Li – one of authentic partnership, and a shared determination to create something amazing.#startups #investors #mentor #partnerships #IPO #growth
