Sveiki Latvia 🇱🇻 Last week Superangel was in Riga as part of the VC in Town concept organised by Startin.lv. We had fun meeting with new early-stage startups at the Startup House Riga and hosting friends for dinner together with FIRSTPICK and Vendep Capital.

great discussion yesterday with Sajith Pai, Kushal Bhagia and Anmol Maini at Sandhill Markets - here were my top 5 takeaways: 1. some emerging Indian startup mafias are Flipkart, Paytm, Freshworks, Zoho, Urban Company. 2. much of Indian early-stage venture funding flows through university networks, unlike the US. two main networks are IIT Delhi and Bombay. Kushal Bhagia even likened IIT Delhi to India's Stanford. 3. Indian early-stage funding market has a lot of 'dark deal flow' that goes on in private networks, and investors over-rely on company and university signals. 4. there are two Indian early-stage funding markets—one for vc fluent founders and one for the nonfluent ones. 5. funding rounds for the vc fluent founders are getting closer to similar stage rounds in the US, in value. for the nonfluent ones, a US Pre-Seed is Indian Seed, a US Seed is Indian Series A, and so on.
Excited to be doing this live panel tonight with Sajith Pai and Anmol Maini on India’s early stage startup ecosystem! Thanks for organising this Sandhill Markets 🙌 Registration link below 🔗

"The Scaleup and Connector Guy": Helping your business innovate, scale and connecting you with the right people.
I like the lesson learned that Shaun Quincey mentions: “Whether you are embarking on rowing the Tasman or whether you’re building a startup, it’s gonna come down to your repeat scalable systems and processes. Your ability to identify the patterns of success that enable progress. Then, continuing to repeat those time and time again.“ “That will make sure that when the going is good, and the wind’s behind you, you’re crushing it; you’re smashing ahead in the right direction. And also when it’s not, well, at least you’re holding your ground.” Scalable processes and systems may be the the boring stuff, but it’s the stuff you need to get right, even if you are a startup.
🛶 Shaun Quincey was just the second man to row solo from Australia to New Zealand when he did it 15 years ago. ✨ He's also navigated a successful exit with his first startup Genopay, and is now focused on his new venture, Simfuni. 👇 He talks about the similarities between business and, including the common factor in succeeding and how he resisted setting his boat on fire 🔥 https://lnkd.in/gtTcwrBT

As reported in Forbes Australia, (the highlighting is my own) it seems I've done OK at picking good Startmate startups to invest in after Demo Day - here's a table of the most valuable Startmate companies since 2012. Edrolo, Morse Micro and Sitemate were all startups I was unable to invest in because I didn't have the available capital. But now we have the M8 Ventures Syndicate on Aussie Angels, maybe we'll miss out on fewer of the big uplifts! https://lnkd.in/gDNU_q79
