Miguel Armaza sits down with Ben Miller, CEO & Co-Founder of Fundrise, the largest direct-to-investor alternative asset manager in the US, that has grown from an idea to a platform with over 2 million active users and $3.3 billion in real estate private equity, private credit, and growth-stage venture capital.
We discuss:
- How a product pivot cost Fundrise half their customers, but set them up for future success
- Why he’s not optimistic about many tech companies worth billions and believes they will continue to struggle to turn a profit
- How rapid growth impacts your culture
- Why the best innovation happens at the intersection of multiple specialties
- The importance of staying true to your mission… and a lot more!
