— Founder of a company George took an intro to
George has been one of the most active angels in our round, which means even more considering he's a hardcore VC, and one of the best of them out there. George takes a long-term view of the success in a company, getting in early and giving solid advice that is not critical as much as it's constructive. His attitude is truly that the entrepreneur is a very special driver of value growth, and the VC's role is to enable that growth at massive scale.
As an entrepreneur, I'm not one to generally go around gushing about VCs, but I can't say enough good things about George.
— Founder of a company George invested in
Smart investor that knows how to connect with entrepreneurs and loves backing people with disruptive personalities and the skills to build and grow world-changing products and services.
— Founder of a company George took an intro to
Honest, smart, courageous--willing to invest behind his instincts.
— Founder of a company George invested in
Through thesis and AngelList work, I've seen investor support and communication as a third party. George is among most supportive investors I've ever seen. He also adds this support early in startups he believes in, without waiting for a critical mass to sign on. You want him on your side.

George is, without a doubt, the greatest VC out there. He's extremely connected, very hands-on, and most of all a good and genuine guy. If you have the opportunity to have him/CRV as an investor, you'll see what I mean...
