Good afternoon, Tushar and welcome to the Every Day business show, so glad to have you here with us today.
Tell us about the global economic scenario? How is liquidity so high and how is it fuelling & bursting bubbles across asset classes?
How Venture Capital came into prominence as an investment asset class?
Which sectors and areas have taken off globally and in India?
Which sectors do you deal with and why?
What Trends are happening that people aren’t paying attention to?
When it comes to investing, what Founder Characteristics do Funds look for?
What Differentiating Factors do you look for in a company to add to your investor's portfolio?
Share with us, how can someone spot the Right Investment(s)?
If you had to pick one company you are most proud that you invested in or got an investment for, which one would you pick and why?
What areas are you most passionate about that your investors invested in?
How do you feel sales have changed in the last decade compared to today?
What do you think founders should be focused on when it comes to growth and revenue?
Do you believe founders should have an attitude of abundance or frugality when it comes to their investment funding?
What would you say to a founder evaluating potential investment partners, what characteristics should they look for?
Who else would you nominate from your investor's portfolio companies to be a guest on the show?
(These are just points and questions to give us a background, but we will go where the conversation takes us)
THANKYOU Tushar!
Toni's notes
Tushar started the Venture Capital business in 2016 because he saw that although Technology has come a long way across sectors there was a gap between young Tech Founders and Venture Capital investors. So, I help Startups with documentation & funding and also help investors in getting the right investments.
