How Well Do You Know This Investor?

Have known this investor for years (know them very well)

Entree has a huge amount of money behind them and can deploy serious capital to back you. But with that comes a huge ego. Avi in particular is arrogant beyond measure and has zero EQ. I’ve pitched him multiple businesses over the years and can say that I have never had a single positive interaction with him. He talks a huge game about being founder friendly, when he is anything but. Only making himself available between 1-3am Eastern because it’s the morning in Israel, demanding to have full control of the board and flip flopping on valuation are just a few entries into the catalogue of what Avi defines as founder friendly. Avi is more interested in founders kissing the ring than pitching a good idea. I have stopped engaging with him and his firm. If you value your time and don’t enjoy getting talked down to, I’d suggest you do the same.
