Founders Beware: What You Need to Know Before Taking VC Money, with Foundry Group’s Seth Levine
Should you take venture money? "You really need to be up for growing a business, growing it relatively quickly, and finding an exit." — Seth Levine
On this episode of Authentically Successful, Carol interviews Seth, the managing director and co-founder of Foundry Group. The venture capital firm was formed in 2007 and has now grown to 75 employees.
You’ll hear about Seth’s winding journey from majoring in psychology and thinking he would become a professor to working long hours at an investment bank to eventually leading a large company.
He talks about the founding of Foundry Group and the world of venture capital. According to Seth, taking venture capital is not always the best course of action for entrepreneurs and they should do their research carefully before taking the plunge.
They also discuss Seth’s first book called “The New Builders: Face to Face With the True Future of Business” and the surprising facts about entrepreneurism today.
