Living in Austin, we’ve seen many popular companies either start or move their HQ and Regional Offices here such as Onnit, Yeti and Indeed, to name a few. We’ve also seen a trend of tech companies specializing in health and wellness start here in the city. 

My guest today is Marcus Stroud, the Co-Founder of TXV: an early stage venture capital firm that led investments into companies such as Oura, Future, Levels and Open. We talk about how Marcus started in Venture Capital, how he defines human performance, the future of human performance and new companies emerging in the space.
