GREAT IDEAS CAN CHANGE THE WORLD

@ajaz_ahmed

It takes just ONE idea

Just imagine

You’ve had that great idea

An idea that will change the world

An idea that will touch the lives

of lots of people

What would you do with your idea?

You could tell someone about your idea

Venture Capitalists help people

They invest in great ideas

They invest in great people

They’re desperate to talk to people with great ideas

Their model is to discover great ideas &

great people

The only problem is!

Most VC's don’t have any "Venture"

They don't like to listen

They don't like to talk

They love bits of paper

They love fiction

P&L's, sales forecasts, EBITDA  

They worship Excel  

They love safe bets

It’s difficult to get in-touch with them

They’re in love with themselves

VC’s - Don’t you get it?

I don’t care where you got your MBA from  

I don’t care how much you sold

your company for  

I don’t care where you used to work  

I just need you to listen

Nobody’s listening

So I'll carry on dreaming

I don’t like VC’s

This presentation is based on personal

observations when dealing with VC’s

Lets #cutthecrap
