How Well Do You Know This Investor?

9

I've been working with Ilya for a few years now. Even before we officially started working together he helped us think through early product strategy. His product leader / operator experience is real. Both at a high growth startup as well as rebuilding an iconic VC firm. He's been a full time VC long enough to know when to push and when to let us execute. If I were starting another company again tomorrow, Ilya would be my first (investor) call. Only reason I'm 9/10 is because Ilya taught me when rating our own team we probably have never experienced a 10/10 team. Always room to improve.
