Announcing: Coffee with VCs

Many of the next potentially great founders are currently transitioning from top tech jobs, working on startup ideas during their off hours or in stealth mode. These are exactly the kind of founders VCs want to connect with early on.

But many of these founders are not from the startup world and don’t have deep links within the VC community. They are experts in their fields but have questions and misconceptions about the VC world, and want a low stakes setting to start learning about this world and making relevant contacts.

That’s why I’m happy to announce VC POV’s first ever “Coffee with VCs” event, where we will be bringing together an exclusive group of 10 Founders/Founder-to-be to meet Tal Morgenstern, Partner at Sequoia Capital, Paz Eshel, VP at Battery Ventures and I over coffee for a glimpse at how the “other” side thinks.

If you or anyone you know are interested in joining us, please fill in the application form on our flyer.
