I disagree with tat someone's statement.
I think MA has more connections that could be beneficial to startups that most angels. I for one would give him ownership in exchange for introductions to people he knows.
I do not see what makes MA less qualified than most angel investors. He spent 5 years interviewing founders, being the first to learn about their ideas, seeing the ones he wasn't fond of (Twitter. Mike used to talk shit about Twitter, granted in a friendly way, all day long). I think he is very well placed to start his own angel fund.
If you can start the platform where companies like Mint launched, and have Marissa Mayer show up for your conference, I think you can launch a startup fund.
- ignifero 15y agoInteresting. Let's see how his first startup goes, and how it ends up. Remember the crunchpad? The main problem i see with him is that he's not technical. Also how popular are his conferences/blog going to be if others see him as a competitor? Anyway, best of luck to his endeavors.
