In this episode of Brick by Brick: Wealth Building Conversations, we sit down with Alexander J. Brown, Managing Partner at Beacon Venture Partners, to pull back the curtain on what really drives smart venture capital investing.

With over a decade of experience in startups, strategy, and venture, Alex breaks down the mythologies that dominate the VC world — from celebrity founders to billion-dollar unicorn dreams — and shares how seasoned investors can cut through the noise to find truly scalable opportunities.

We also dive into:

• How Alex blends agile methodology (Scrum) into venture operations

• Why hands-on leadership matters in early-stage investing

• A real-life story of stepping in to lead a struggling portfolio company

• Tactical advice for founders seeking capital the right way

Whether you're raising your first round or deploying your tenth, this episode is a masterclass in strategic investing and entrepreneurial leadership.
