Hi, Christoph from Point Nine here.
We do NOT do what you’re suggesting here - discriminate against Indians (or any nationality). This would be horrible and stupid. Our own team comes from various countries, and so do the founders of our portfolio companies.
As for countries that we invest in, we’ve invested in lots of different places. In fact, that’s one of the things we’re known for. We haven’t invested in e.g. India or China yet but that may change over time. Point taken that we shouldn’t say ‘everywhere’ as long as we’re not ready to invest everywhere - will make sure to change the website wording ASAP.
- veryworried 8y agoI'd hope so man, but the issue here wasn't that you don't invest "everywhere", it's that a man was profiled based on his name and quickly turned away. I'd try to figure out why that happened.
- SamReidHughes 8y agoProbably somebody just had a brain fart.
- ganeshkrishnan 8y agoMy grip should be with the "invest all over the world" but "not in your country" tag, not that you got my country wrong. However I really was not looking for investment at all! I loved the medium article posted and wanted to network. But I guess it's absurd to talk to VCs without the expectation of investment.
