In our latest Seedcamp Firsts edition, Victor Riparbelli, co-founder of our portfolio company, Synthesia, speaks with our Venture Partner, Devin Hunt, about making big bets, how to get comfortable with long-term product decisions, and learning from mistakes.
Synthesia is the world's largest AI video platform. Using anthropomorphic AI avatars, the company helps people make video content without the need for cameras, studios, actors, and any other physical recording process.
Key Takeaways:
- The early days are about survival and getting to product-market fit. As the company grows, you can take bigger bets.
- Think about new markets as opposed to an incremental solution in an existing market.
- Plan and think out the potential scenarios before starting to code.
