A Chat with Fred Wilson [video]
- russell 17y agoAn interesting tidbit that I picked up: one-third of VC investments succeed beyond their expectations, one-third do OK (zombies from the VC's perspective), and, one-third fail. I had thought, from what I had previously read, that 10% were very successful, and 50% failed.
- spencerfry 17y agoI've heard the 1/3rd rule from other investors as well.
- pg 17y agoTop tier VCs like Fred get to invest in the cream of the crop, so the numbers are different for him.
- ramidarigaz 17y agoThat was fairly boring. A few interesting tidbits, but I couldn't make it through the entire thing.
