YUVC#15 - Olympic Rower turned Deal-by-deal VC, Founder @No Such Ventures

  • Inhaltsangabe

  • YZ Yuanzhe Fu + YY Yuyan Wang, founders of YUVC are thrilled to be joined by Reinder Lubbers, Founder at No Such Ventures, investing €2-8M deal by deal sector-agnostically.

    Reinder previously represented Netherlands at the Beijing Olympic Games in Rowing. He was the former COO of software scale-up 24i and investment banker and VC investor.

    Highlights:

    YZ: Is it necessary to like the founders you are investing in?
    Reinder: The truth is no, you don't have to like them. You must trust each other a little bit, ensuring you have the right intentions.

    YZ: How was your overall Olympic experience in Beijing back then?
    Reinder: My overall experience in Beijing was amazing; I appreciated how the Chinese people strived to do things right, which added to the uniqueness of the event.

    YZ: How do you manage to screen investment deals from a broad deal flow when approaches can vary among investors?
    Reinder: Having over a hundred individuals investing with us creates an extra sourcing channel we really like. We often try to involve a couple of these investors in our core meetings to help screen the companies because that helps enormously.
