How do you stay disciplined in VC? Fernando Fabre, CEO at Kauffman Fellows, asked three investors about their approach: 1️⃣ Process & Luck "It’s about having an investment thesis, which is your vision of the world and where it’s headed, and executing that thesis consistently without getting tempted by hype. And then, luck plays a big part of it." —Rafa de Haro, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, COMETA 2️⃣ A Prepared Mind “When you are lucky, you need to know that you are lucky. You have to be prepared to catch that chance to invest.” —Dilek DAYINLARLI, Co-Founder & Managing Partner, ScaleX Ventures 3️⃣ Rules-Based Discipline "Endeavor Catalyst’s rules-based approach creates a tremendous amount of discipline in what we do. It helps us through the market ups and downs.” —Allen Taylor, Managing Partner, Endeavor Catalyst ➡️ Watch the full panel for more insights into venture capital in emerging markets: https://lnkd.in/eFN6kKgD #VC #GlobalVentureCapital #Entrepreneurship
