Very excited that you launched this newsletter. I came across an article about your work in the Handelsblatt a few years ago, which happened to inspire my Master‘s thesis about the impact of data driven decision support systems on VC‘s decision-making. Looking forward to reading more about your thoughts and ideas!

Great insights but as an industry outsider the abbreviations don't seem too clear from the start. Could you write out the abbreviations once? I read GP as general practitioner...(medical domain) and don't enjoy switching to the search engine myself. Makes a better reading flow as well. Cheers!

THX for sharing your knowledge Andre.

My 5cts; as VC's are intensely data-driven, how come so few have a formal process (and tools) in place for managing past data? Considering the project-based nature of the business, gathering data on current and past project should be an invaluable resource to the business of investing in and accompanying start-ups and scale-ups.

Absolutely. Actually I am from the same space where we’re trying to build solutions for VCs. Would be nice to have your views!

Pretty interesting.

Can you also provide info on what the bottleneck at the screening stage is and how different services have tried to tackle them? And if there is a possibility of modularising screening and DD stage. Also how data comes in this picture.
