This week’s episode of the Voicing Startups podcast is a bit different. Usually I am interviewing different startups in the audio and voice space, but today I am talking with Marc Ladin, General Partner at VoicePunch. VoicePunch is an early stage venture capital fund that has a thematic focus on audio and voice tech. The fund has been actively investing since January of 2019 and is in the process of raising our next fund. I joined the VoicePunch team about a year ago, and I believe Marc and I working together resulted in us having a really good interview and reflection of a year in voice tech investing.

To start off this interview we talk about Marc's background as a tech entrepreneur, how he got into early stage investing, and ultimately why he decided to focus on audio and voice tech. This focus led to VoicePunch and their Beta fund in 2019 which we dig into next. We discuss the evolution of VoicePunch’s strategy, the investments made and why, and some other general takeaways. This discussion led to 2020 and the years ahead. In 2020 VoicePunch is in the process of raising Fund 1, also focused on early stage investing in audio and voice tech. To wrap up the interview we talk about Marc’s outlook on the next decade ahead in the space. I hope you enjoy this week's episode of Voicing Startups!
