Tae Hea Nahm of Storm Ventures joins Nick to discuss Go-to-Market Fit, Tidal Waves, Category Leadership & Split-Personalities. In this episode, we cover:
- You’ve been very successful with exits- is there a framework you apply to identify these?
- With your expansive experience in Venture, do you believe are changes necessary in the silicon valley mentality?
- You said you love to take the subway and observe what people are doing- what are some things you are spotting now and what are you spotting across the world.
- Through your recent observations, what is the next big thing you are testing in Korea?
- You’ve stated that founders have to stay both pragmatic and ambitious. In tech it’s often a problem when you build out infrastructure or sales before everything is ready. On the flip side sharing too many problems or issues with your team and investors will make them wary. Have you had any of these occurrences with finding a balance and what would you advise the audience as solutions.
- How do you actually identify true passion in founders and what are the criteria you use for this?
- In your book you talk about the 3 go to market elements. How long did it take you to realize these 3 things?
