The Dart Board x FUTURE TITANS is proud to present Jeff Perry of Carta in conversation with Seth Levine, partner and co-founder of Foundry, a Boulder-based venture firm managing over $4 billion across multiple funds. With more than 25 years in venture, Seth shares the lessons he learned building Foundry from an emerging manager into one of the industry’s most respected firms.
Recorded live at the FUTURE TITANS Emerging Manager Summit, Seth discusses why venture is ultimately an influence business, how emerging managers should think about building partnerships and scaling themselves, and why entry valuation rarely determines the outcome of a great investment.
We also explore the challenges facing emerging managers today, the growing concentration of venture capital, and Seth’s perspective on how capitalism itself is evolving.
