Lacking a Proper Give and Take
Asked for a lot of information but gave flimsy feedback in return. Wouldn't call them smart investors.

Unprofessional
Ultimately, never came back to us after a couple of meetings. Got the impression they were a bit amateur.

#1 VC Skill
Professional and short investment process. Helped with finding a very relevant angel investor that joined the round. Easy to reach out to if there's anything. Balancing the art of pushing for better results and being supportive without micro managing. Gave us a strategic framework that has been essential.

Building an Interesting KB
Top-quality and professional VC at least on the seed stage. Definitely suitable for someone dealing the first time with a VC. They seem to be putting time and effort into making it easier for the portfolio companies to share learnings with each other. Even though having a broad industry focus in the portfolio, it makes the learnings/support also a more general purpose.

Helpful Tool
They invested in us four months ago and are now on our board. They are attentive of our needs in the shape of coaching and sparring of ideas, discussing business, PR or recruitment strategies or down to the details of specific deals, candidates or press-releases. I find their level of engagement to be well balanced of being there without micro managing. As we move into new territory in the journey of our company I think they add significant value with their advice and connections. They help us focus on the right things for getting us to where we need to go. They provide a very good support and help structure for me as a first-time CEO.

Extra Stress but Worthwhile
Difficult & Complicated communication within the team making the process really complicated. Yet their analysis and will were straightforward as we would expect from a Tier 1
