Paul Bonnet, general partner at 20VC, walks through how he went from equity research at Bank of America Merrill Lynch to five years at DST Global, and then to a fund that grew out of one of the most listened-to podcasts in venture.
He explains why 20VC deliberately keeps a core team of just six people, and how running a media ecosystem alongside a fund changes deal sourcing, founder relationships and access in ways a traditional firm cannot easily replicate.
The episode closes on how the firm sees its own future and where Bonnet expects his role to go as the model matures.
