Author: Alejandro Cremades April 9, 2025 Duration: 31:05
Dan Magy’s journey from a sun-soaked surf town in Southern California to building some of the most impactful defense technology in modern warfare doesn’t follow any conventional path. He’s not a coder, nor does he claim to be a technical wizard. But what Dan lacks in technical prowess, he makes up for in vision, grit, and relentless curiosity. Dan’s latest venture, Firestorm Labs has attracted funding from top-tier investors like Harpoon VC, 645 Ventures, Feld Ventures, and Lockheed Martin Ventures.

Alejandro Cremades has spent his career in the trenches of startup finance, and in his DealMakers: Entrepreneur | Startups | Venture Capital podcast, he brings that direct experience to every conversation. As a serial entrepreneur, author, and cofounder of an M&A and fundraising advisory firm, he knows the precise questions that uncover the real story behind a transaction. Each episode moves beyond surface-level success tales to examine the mechanics, negotiations, and pivotal decisions that actually lead to a closed round or a company sale. You'll hear founders and investors detail their specific strategies, the obstacles they faced during due diligence, and the moments where a deal nearly fell apart. This isn't about abstract theory; it's a practical, weekly look at how capital flows and companies change hands, hosted by someone who has both advised on and lived through the process. For anyone building a business or investing in one, this podcast provides an unfiltered audio guide to the complex, human-driven world of making deals happen.
