Kate Cornell talks in this video about the importance of having operational or founder backgrounds in Acurio Ventures, which helps their team to empathize with the founders they invest in. She also points out how the structure of Acurio Ventures makes it easier for them to make decisions quickly and to take into account the voices of everyone involved: 💬 ‘We don’t have intentions of becoming a very big team, which also allows for a flat structure where everyone can have an opinion, can have a voice. That’s something we take huge pride in, it means that people can look at different sectors, at different geographies, and really also find their space here’. #entrepreneurs #investment
