We’re seeing some investment in areas which are not the ones we’re spending a tonne of time on at seed-stage. Our starters community is taking our interest towards areas we didn’t know existed.
Superscout provides learning resources for current and upcoming VC scouts, a community forum, and tools to help scouts present deals and find the right investors to send them to.
If you want to eventually work at a venture fund, the VC partners will look at your scout track record.
They’ll never get enough credit for this, but one thing Sequoia did was use scouts to radically increase the amount of diversity in the industry.
Accel has found a simple way to make it stand out from the crowd: it’s given each scout a bucketload of capital.
I guess the next and final question is: what kind of scout programmes can we build, drawing from the example the US and the UK has set for us ?
