How do you like to add value beyond investing?
I've now invested in over 100 companies -- and there's not much I haven't seen before. Companies that I have seeded have raised over $1 billion in follow-on funding in later rounds... I take board seats when appropriate -- and look to be as engaged as needed by the entrepreneur. More about value-add <a href="http://www.firstround.com/why/now_is_the_time">here</a>
In your book, what does a seed stage company look like when you invest?
I love to invest super early - usually say just a PowerPoint and a story - and am typically the first source of capital, whether it be $25K or $750K.
