Quick Study: How Venture Capitalists Make Decisions

Since the 1970s, venture capitalists have backed about one-third of all large publicly traded companies started in the U.S. That’s one of the remarkable findings from Ilya Strebulaev, a finance professor at Stanford Graduate School of Business who studies the inner workings of the VC industry.
Here, in the latest episode of our Quick Study video series, Strebulaev discusses what he’s learned about “the VC mindset” - a unique approach to investing in risky, high-growth startups.

Very nice video! Well produced and great content! As a fellow Stanford LEADer, I always appreciate how well Stanford content conveys a message clearly and concisely.

[@McCallHall1]

Great explanations and illustrations.

Mindset shift when trying something new is to be willing to fail and staying flexible ...easy said but so hard to (remember) to do..thx for the tip..

Without Zoom, Skypes head start may have counted for something. This was informative. Thank you.

I apologize if this isn't the right place for feedback, but I couldn't find another method. Notably, Stanford's GSB channel is the only one among the top 10 US business schools with content notifications disabled due to its "content made for kids" setting. I'm uncertain about the reasoning for this, but it's likely affecting viewership.

Thank you for your feedback. Our channel is definitely configured for adult content. Where are you seeing this?

[@markhackl375]

The problem arises when trying to switch the channel notification settings (bell icon) to "All". However, this could potentially be a glitch on KZbin, as my experiences have been inconsistent. Nevertheless, I managed to successfully modify the settings by accessing the channel's homepage through the Edge browser on a Windows device. Here's how the changes occurred on different platforms: KZbin App (Android): - While trying to adjust the settings from the video page, an error message stating "Request contains an invalid argument" appeared and the change was prevented. - Similarly, from the channel page, another error occurred, but this time displaying "Content made for kids". Windows (Edge browser): - When attempting to make the change from the video page, no change resulted. - However, from the channel page, the change was successful.

What did your research on show were historical versions of venture capital today? Re: Pre-1970

[@paulbigbee]

Maybe take a look at Sebastian Mallaby’s “The Power Law”. I think it does a good job of walking through the history.

This channel will block certain videos from receiving comments when it’s controversial, and it doesn’t represent their point of you I’m going to opt out from receiving any feeds from this BS channel
