Based in Austin after 25 years in Silicon Valley, New York & London. My best advice to founders, VCs and members of the startup ecosystem to get ahead: spend 30% of your time doing favors for other people asking for nothing in return. The remaining 70% of your time will be a min 2x more effective giving you a 1.4x boost on your efforts. Raised $48m+ for startups I founded by the age of 28 years old. General Partner, 7BC Venture Capital, General Partner, Rubicon Venture Capital (now fully deployed with 7BC currently investing in growth follow-on rounds of Rubicon portfolio companies).
