Listen Later

Today we welcome Jenny Fielding to the show. Jenny is one of the most active global pre-seed investors, having invested in 300+ companies as the first money in. Jenny is a co-founder of the global venture capital firm, Everywhere Ventures (formerly The Fund.)

Previously, she was the Managing Director at Techstars for 7.5 years where she led investments into companies that now have a market cap of over $10B.

We talk candidly with Jenny about the ‘table stakes economy,’ surrounding yourself with the right people, cap tables, the importance of vesting schedules, and the company ‘red flags’ she notices as a prolific early investor.
