About Sanjay Mehta:

My next guest on The One Percent Project is Sanjay Mehta, Founder & Partner at 100X.VC and Mehta Ventures Family Office. Sanjay has invested in 150+ Start-ups across sectors with a 86% internal rate of return. In his words “Most startups will fail, so you can say everything sucks and be right most of the time. Although you never lose money with that strategy, you never make any either.”

In this conversation:

1. He shares his learning from investing in Start-ups
2. The ethos of 100X.VC
3. His advice for new angel investors & VC on brand building and mentorship
4. His “So What” strategy while evaluating a business idea
