The Role Of Personal Chemistry In Investment Selection (a post by @FredWilson)

"From the outside, most people think that VCs are just looking for the best ideas that will generate the biggest companies. And that is true. We want to invest in big ideas, big markets, and big outcomes. That is a necessary part of our investment selection process, but not sufficient to get us to pull the trigger. We also want to invest in people and teams where we feel a personal chemistry." Content from Fred Wilson's blog, avc.com, used under Creative Commons License.
