Meu Primeiro Cheque: investimento-anjo & venture capital.
Hosted by João Assad, Meu Primeiro Cheque: investimento-anjo & venture capital pulls back the curtain on the pivotal, often nerve-wracking moment when a startup secures its initial funding. This podcast originates from the GVAngels, a group of angel investors composed of FGV alumni, and it leverages that unique position within the ecosystem. Each conversation moves beyond abstract theory, focusing instead on the tangible human and strategic elements behind that first check. You'll hear founders recount the raw realities of their early fundraising journeys-what worked, what didn't, and the unexpected hurdles they faced. The dialogue is expanded by insights from angel investors themselves, along with venture capital managers and other key voices from innovation movements, who provide the other side of the table's perspective. Rather than offering generic advice, this podcast builds a mosaic of real-world experiences, examining why that initial capital infusion is about much more than just money; it's a vote of confidence, a partnership formed, and a critical milestone that sets a company's trajectory. By sharing these current and past journeys, the series demystifies the early-stage investment process for both entrepreneurs and aspiring angels, creating a vital resource for anyone curious about the true engine of the startup world. Tune in for candid stories and practical reflections that you won't find in a textbook.
