In our latest 10X Capital Podcast episode, we sat down with Jamie Rhode and dug deep into the world of venture capitalism and fund management. Jamie shared some thought-provoking insights, 'If you are not a founder, magnet. If you are not a superstar investor, I can't do anything for you. That is level set your job. You better be in a if sound or magnet, or I don't know why you're doing this.'
She emphasized the importance of being at the top of your game, but also highlighted the unseen work that goes into transitioning from an investor to a fund manager. It's not just about being great at investing, but also understanding the dynamics of fund management.
Jamie also shared some unique insights about the sourcing process, talking about how his partner Lane uses her connections to established funds to find junior partners considering branching out on their own. This gives them early access to potentially successful emerging managers. It's a fascinating peek into a world many of us don't get to see.
