#12 - Abha Nath (Investor @ Wonder Ventures)

33 minutes

This week we had on Abha Nath (@abhanath) of Wonder Ventures.

Wonder is an early-stage fund that aims to invest earlier than anyone else in Southern California’s best founders. Since its founding in 2015, the firm has invested in category-defining companies like Honey, Luxe, Joymode, and a number of others. Abha is the first and only hire at Wonder, and we wanted to have her on to dive into her unique path.

In this talk, we discuss:

Abha’s journey to venture and how her previous roles at the Disney Accelerator and Ring prepared her to be an investor

What makes Southern California unique as a startup ecosystem

What has changed when evaluating early-stage companies virtually

Some red flags that make businesses un-investible

We flip it around and let Abha ask us a few questions at the end
