Listen "E131: Can VCs Make Money in Deep Tech? w/Nick Shekerdemian"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of How I Invest, I sit down with Nick Shekerdemian, entrepreneur, investor, and founding partner of The Venture Collective (TVC). A former Oxford student turned Thiel Fellow, Nick shares his journey of dropping out of university to pursue big ideas and how the fellowship helped shape his path in venture capital. We explore TVC's unique approach to portfolio construction, investing in deep tech and computational biology, and why thesis-driven investing is the future of venture capital. Nick also discusses challenges like founder breakups, scaling value-added strategies, and his thoughts on the next big shifts in technology and bio-defense.
