Today I am chatting with Chris Wade, Co-Founder and Partner at venture capital firm, Isomer Capital, which funds European technology innovation. Chris is an incredibly experienced founder, entrepreneur, start-up mentor and venture capitalist.   This is a highly enlightening interview and provides deep insight on both the start-up and the venture capital side into the true nature of the entrepreneurial journey from someone at the top of their field.     In this interview you will learn about:

• Why entrepreneurship is an “illogical leap”
• Why you should not believe your own hype
• The “what else” mindset
• Why Europe is a thriving place for start ups
• What makes a good mentor
• What makes a good mentee
• Why the “why” matters
