Secrets of Sand Hill Road
The VMT Review
Kupor provides a clear explanation of venture capital from the perspective of an experienced venture-firm managing partner. It is broader and more narrative than Venture Deals, with greater attention to fund economics, investment decisions, board relationships, and company stages. Andreessen Horowitz describes it as a guide to how VCs decide what to finance and how founders can manage the relationship.
