How Well Do You Know This Investor?

8

Very serious, extremely positive experience. We had met a16z a bunch before, had gone to Monday partner review before and been bounced, so it was a second pass - we are seed stage so it's all speculative anyway for them - but she is the most senior partner we met. Took a meeting fast, via warm intro, very sharp. Aggressive about the segment, knows stuff from China, is predictably dismissive, but when you fight back, with knowledge and analysis, she listens carefully and asks good questions. Took the offer to Monday morning again, partner group bounced, but she was very precise and extensive in follow-up notes, and invited further pitches. Same story with Li Jin, actually, the year before. a16z seems to have a protocol, the parnters/associates follow it. Fkn excellent. No time wasted, very positive.
