ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
How Microsoft alumni can provide rocket fuel for the startup ecosystem
Ken Horenstein cut his investing teeth at what is now Microsoft's M12. He leaned into the "learn-it-all culture" to soak up the ins and outs of venture capital before leaving to start his own venture fund. In this episode of Beyond the Blue Badge, host T.A. McCann talks with Ken about his Microsoft journey, lessons learned while going it on his own, his current firm Pack Ventures and the xMSFT Syndicate, and the power that networks — specifically the Microsoft Alumni Network — can have to supercharge the startup ecosystem.
