Focus on Customers Even When Seeking VC Dollars - To Revenue - 0 views

  • Charles Plant of MaRS Discovery District, the innovation hub in Toronto. Charles communicates a rather negative view of venture capital, but it has the merit of presenting some of the important things to consider before seeking VC money.
  • I especially like the call to focus on customers first. This is not always possible, but designing for a defined market certainly is, and anyone involved with tech commercialization will tell you it’s often the exception rather than the rule.

    Blog mentions of a presentation where Charles Plant spoke about Venure Capital and how you need to have a compelling business case to maximize and obtain favourable conditions from VCs. March 3, 2009
