“ We ' re living in a high-velocity venture market . It ' s easy to err toward a transactional approach as people tend to work on autopilot . We really like to know our partners . We work closely with them and are supportive . In terms of economics , even speaking to the way we structure our investments , often there ' s a component where we ' re helping companies while earning the right to invest more in them by accelerating their businesses , which really matter to founding teams and their other investors . “ It ' s this notion of finding a balance , understanding value creation and having a long-term view in terms of the partnership . We build partnerships that are durable and hope to work with founders across multiple businesses and ventures .”
