3 Psychological Pitfalls that make Entrepreneurs (and Investors) Weak When They Think They are being Strong.

From Jan Andriessen - henQ (@JanAndrssn) As an early stage VC I quite frequently get exposed to entrepreneurs who have just experienced their first successes (e.g. a first VC funding round, the first €300k in recurring revenues, etc.).

Reaching out to a VC: Unfortunate Mistakes.

From Pieter Welten - Prime Ventures (@pieterwelten) ​Every now and then we receive a phone call from an entrepreneur or advisor who is seeking to raise funds and who is only willing to talk to a partner. Unfortunately (or fortunately?) not to me, myself not being a partner. Sometimes we also receive a phone call or e-mail from a CEO who wants to...
