October is data month at @ansacapital. I’m obsessed with data. Lately, I've been focused on the impact and applicability of real-time data streaming on building data moats. I've shared my views and market map in Ansa's latest Open Spaces. Read it here: ansa.co/post/decipheri…

@galeforceVC @galeforceVC it's so hard to build a business if your largest customers aren't paying you any revenue...Let's start a emerging manager support group. Whose in?

new fund of funds "investing in emerging managers" by investing 10-50% of the fund through a GP commitment. if you're not familiar with the GP commitment, it's no fee / no carry. unbelievable. and this person thinks they are actually helping emerging managers. 🤦‍♀️

@Google’s Global Head of Product Inclusion @Its_Me_AJB’s new book is out! A tactical how-to guide on implementing product inclusion best practices, strategies and results! From tangible measurement to adversarial testing, she’s a force and also my sister amazon.com/dp/1119646227/…

@anarghya503 I always tell my new teammates that the best way to break in is to show a deep understanding of the business. A detailed email that demonstrates true grasp of 1) competitive landscape and positioning, 2) customer ROI, and 3) non-obvious market trends always helps!

If you were to give a new investor sourcing tips, what would they be? Teaching a course on VC sourcing tomorrow, have my slides, but thought the class could benefit from #VCtwitter if ya'll have thoughts 😎
