Back to the Basics: Building in a Downturn with Geoff Lewis


Listen Later

Geoff Lewis (@GeoffLewisOrg), founder at Bedrock, joins Lucas Bagno and Ian Cinnamon to discuss:

- His thoughts on the markets and the advice he has for founders operating in a market like this one.

- What is driving financial nihilism and how it has changed society.

- Why he’s only investing in founders where their company is their life’s work.

- Bedrock’s investments in hardware and companies making things in the physical world.

- The perils of politics replacing religion as our mechanism for forming community.

- The crisis of meaning in society.

- The institutionalization of venture capital over the last decade and why he’s an advocate of going back to basics with small teams making fewer high conviction investments.
