You're sitting across the table, your eyes alight with excitement over a pitch. But then, plot twist – someone starts questioning everything. It's part of the game, making sure we're not just seeing things through rose-colored glasses. Chatting with Sunil Nagaraj, Founding Partner at Ubiquity Ventures, highlighted one of the thrills of the early-stage investment game: the best funds out there, they've got a flair for the asymmetric - when someone at the table just can't hold back their enthusiasm. They're like, "Guys, this is it." They've spotted something – maybe it's the spark in a founder's eye or a market gap everyone else is missing. So, what's our playbook? It's about feeling that vibe, that "Let's roll with it" moment. We're not just throwing ideas at a wall; we're putting our weight behind them. We dig deep, ask the tough questions, but once we're on board, we're committed. That idea becomes part of the crew. And when those out-there bets win, it's high fives all around.
