How to break into VC - AskAVC #28

How to break into VC is a question often asked by a variety of folks passionate about helping build emerging tech businesses. From ex-entrepreneurs to startup advisors - people come to me for my thoughts on what makes a great venture capital investor and how to become one. I recently was interviewed by The European VC podcast (http://theeuropeanvc.com/) on that exact topic and we talked about things like: What background do you need to become a VC? What is a "shadow" portfolio? Do you need to raise a "proof of concept" fund? Watch the full video to get answers to all these questions - and more.
