Thrilled to see Gopi (Gopinath Sundaramurthy, Ph.D), our Head of Data Science, join Jason Scharf on the Austin Next podcast to dive into the finer points of data-driven venture. If you have a chance to listen, you'll see Gopi isn't just the brains behind the data science and machine learning -- more importantly, he's the foremost expert in designing practical, repeatable investment processes using data analysis. From the outside looking in, it can seem like data-driven venture is about constructing a "black box" model that automatically identifies winners. The truth is that data is only a starting point -- a foundation that allows human investors to do the hard work of underwriting opportunities more effectively. A must-listen for anyone interested in the future of venture capital. Thanks to Jason Scharf for his relentless support of the Austin venture ecosystem!

It was such a fun discussion. Not only because Gopi can go so deep on the subject, but he can make it so accessible as well. It also peels back the curtain on how you all as team + data + analytics have been able to have so many unicorns already!
