When you join VC, everyone says the most important thing to do is to build your network.
BUT meeting new ppl can be hard.
Let’s help each other. If you’re in VC & open to connecting drop the following:
👤 Name
✍️ Title
💰 Firm & stage
🎯 Focus area
📲 Contact info

My path to #venturecapital was not easy. I am glad organizations like @bvcc_vc exist to make it possible for many more students (especially at #HBCUs) to learn about startups, early-stage investing and secure internships at VC funds!

People say they want to be Directors, VPs, Presidents or C suite execs at large companies and in the same breath are unwilling to ever work a night or weekend...make it make sense

We need more ambitious people taking risks on big ideas. They need empowered to do it, expanding access to venture capital is a start.

🎙Check out my conversation with @landon20s on @intheir20s
Some thoughts
- Time blocks remove decisions
- 20s was hard work & networking
- Having boundaries is uncomfortable but critical
- You have to sacrifice something to be excellent at anything

I could be a venture capitalist
I could be a founder
I could be a banker
If cops pull me over none of that matters, they see one thing.
I’m a Black man.
