Q&A With Fred Wilson of Union Square Ventures (video)
Allen Stern - June 24th, 2009
Tonight at the Entrepreneur’s Roundtable, Union Square Ventures partner Fred Wilson provided feedback for a variety of startups who pitched their ideas. I will post the pitches over the next couple of days. At the beginning of the event, Fred opened up the conversation for a Q&A and I’ve posted the video below.
When asked what Fred looks for in a deal he noted:
- they look for companies that are changing the game in a big way
- companies that are shaking something up
- companies that work better than the companies in the sector
- some of the areas they are looking for deals in education, finance, energy, environment and government
Other topics in the video:
- dealsize USV looks for
- discusses his blog
- why Boxee is doing great things
- potential venture regulation
- general vc market commentary
