Welcome to my conversation with Noor Sugrue, founder of Vintro. This is what we bring to your table: 

00:00 - What is Vintro?

07:52 - The Business Model

11:14 - How Does Vintro Work?

16:56 - What Entrepreneurs Need

23:31 - Deal Flow & Technology

32:48 - Mentors, Supporters & Success

37:52 - Key Lessons

About Noor Sugrue & Vintro in her own words: 

It's 2017. I am sitting in my aunt's living room over the holidays, watching Shark Tank with my family. While we were all fixated on the amazing entrepreneurs we were seeing on TV, I started thinking about the entrepreneurs that didn't make it onto the show. Great ideas are born every day, from people who come from all over the world and from all walks of life, yet every day these amazing ideas die because their creators struggled to find the necessary backing.Historically, people who control resources have limited time, so they shut themselves off from people who aren’t in their immediate network. This makes getting in front of people who can back you incredibly time-consuming, beyond difficult, and wildly expensive.I started thinking about ways to use technology to break down barriers between people with powerful ideas, and the people who can help bring their ideas to life. Vintro was my solution. It's about leveling the playing field and providing equal opportunity for everyone. Our goal is to help you craft the future by eliminating unnecessary barriers to valuable resources.
