Understanding VC is a deep dive on how Venture Capitalists work. In this episode, I talk to Binh Tran, Co-Founder and General Partner at Ascend Vietnam Ventures, a seed stage venture capital firm focused on the emerging Vietnamese startup ecosystem. Binh tells us how passionate he is about software development which is essentially a fusion of science, maths, and creativity. He further reflects on how he came about investing in Axie Infinity, currently the world’s most successful blockchain game. He also imparts some advice for up and coming founders to correctly discern the requisites of startup building, and what it takes to be a founder who can lead people who are more talented than himself. He also emphasizes the worth of a successful partnership between co-founders which can turn the fates of a startup in the increasingly competitive south-east asian market which is on a certain path of growth.
