Startup Project Podcast's Nataraj Sindam sat down with David Blumberg for a discussion on his evolution as an investor. David shared practical insights on his investment strategy and philosophy, emphasizing the importance of strong teams. David believes human nature is the true north of VC. While tech and market dynamics have transformed dramatically since launching his first fund, one thing remains unchanged: the power of people. From founders with bold ideas like Oren Netzer of DoubleVerify and DataHeroes, Dan Sanker of SupplyPike and CaseStack, and Benny Nachman of Jassby, Inc. and Shift4 Europe (formerly Finaro), to Blumberg Capital's Innovation Council, it’s about investing in not only companies, but long-term partnerships. 🎧 Listen to the full episode: https://lnkd.in/ed7jMDRc

Simple doesn't mean it's easy. David Blumberg's simple strategy to building a billion dollar portfolio is — find great people and invest in them again & again. The strategy served his firm (Blumberg Capital) well. The approach led him to invest in the founders of Nutanix ($15B), DoubleVerify ($3.64B), Supply Pike, Credorax & many others successful exits. I spoke to David on the latest episode of Startup Project to uncover his 3 decade experience in finding talent. We covered: → Formula for surviving Silicon Valley → How he became one of the earliest investors backing Israel companies → His experience backing repeat entrepreneurs behind Nutanix, DoubleVerify and more. → His secret superpower behind investing early in great companies (listen full conversation to find out) Snippet below, full conversation in links below. → Spotify - https://lnkd.in/gEGAVSRB → Apple - https://lnkd.in/g-Z_a79w → YouTube - https://lnkd.in/guPyYefn Subscribe for future exclusive conversations. → https://lnkd.in/dVUSXV6F
