In June, Harry Stebbings (20VC creator) and Jordan Schwarzenberger (Manager of The Sidemen) joined me on stage to discuss how influencers and content creators have redefined what it means to be an investor in today’s world. Harry's recently announced $400M fund (one of the largest in Europe) serves as proof that being a content creator first can be a serious advantage in VC. Why? Harry has cultivated a stellar reputation and network that helps him to find opportunities and win deals. Plus, he has built a database of insights from his interviews into what makes a successful investor and how to spot a great founder. The skills he’s developed as an interviewer are directly applicable to venture, which, at core, is a talent spotting business: using conversations to assess founders and their potential.
