Venture Pill E34: Interview with Charlie Plauche, GP at S3 Ventures
On this week’s dose, we interview Charlie Plauche, General Partner at S3 Ventures. Tune in to hear about Charlie’s journey from working in banking and private equity into the world of venture capital. From there, Charlie tells us about his role at S3, and graces us with some perspective on how the startup and VC landscape in Austin has evolved over the past decade. We’ll then hear about what differentiates S3 from the competition, as well as some compelling companies in the portfolio. After that, we dive into a discussion on lessons Charlie learned from previous investments, the craziest startup idea he’s heard, and what he looks for in founders. Listen through to hear Charlie’s networking philosophy and more valuable advice to our Pill-grims looking to break into venture capital.
