This week we had on Kristofer Martin (@K_Swizzy20) from Will Ventures.

Will is an early-stage fund that invests in consumer, health, and media companies. Their entire team is former college athletes, and they look to back founders with the same type of background.

In this talk, we discuss:

  • successful traits of athletes-turned-founders

  • applying skills from different backgrounds

  • sectors and opportunities within consumer tech

Check out the full episode below:

P.S. 🔊: We launched talent collectives as a way to match talent with openings within this community. This is a members-only service for investors within Confluence.VC.

  • If you are looking for another role in venture, apply to join the collective here. 👨‍💻

  • If you are hiring and want introductions to this group of talent, sign up here. 🤝
