When it comes to ‘value-add investors’, a good analogy is that of a co-pilot. 90% of the time they are purely ornamental and likely not necessary, but 10% of the time they can be the difference between life and death.
There is lot of discussion around ‘smart money’ and ‘dumb money’. However, we don’t talk enough about ‘super-powered money’ where having someone on the cap table makes a difference that cannot be measured by the usual metrics.
TiE is hosting a panel of successful founders and their early investors to discuss ‘value-add investors’ with ‘super-powered’ impact.
Speakers
- Greg Smith – founder Thinkific (TSX IPO at $1B+ valuation)
- Jerrid Grimm – founder Pressboard (successful exit, M&A)
- Fraser Hall – Rhino VC, early investor in Thinkific & Pressboard
