Venture Capital - It Sucks

Eric Vishria (@ericvishria) and Chetan Puttagunta (@chetanp), general partners at Benchmark, join Erik on this episode.

They discuss:

- The unique partnership structure at Benchmark and how it has led to the continued success of the firm.

- Why they are purposefully not trying to scale the firm, unlike other venture firms.

- Their investments in open source, why the space is unique, and where the white space is.

- What will change in the future in open source and web infrastructure.

- Biotech as a space and some of the companies they’ve invested in.

- Why entering the healthcare market is fraught with difficulty in the US.
