  • How to review and choose an EIS fund with Dr. Brian Moretta of Hardman & Co
    Mar 1 2023

    We had the opportunity to sit down and chat with the incredible Dr. Brian Moretta of Hardman & Co.

    Brian is a quant by nature, a former fund manager by past, and a fund analyst and reviewer at present. Not to mention, in his spare time, Brian is a professor at the prestigious Heriot-Watt University.

    Brian spends his days picking apart funds (EIS and VCTs) and creating the reports used by wealth advisors and IFAs so it was a privilege to get his take on how to approach reviewing a fund.

    Whether you are a first-time EIS fund investor or a seasoned pro, Brian has some great insights to share with you.

  • From a Magic Pony to Angel Investing with Zehan Wang
    Jan 23 2023

    What does one do with a PhD in visual processing? Naturally, one would join the entrepreneur first accelerator, launch a machine learning-based visual processing business, sell it to twitter, then work one's way up the Twitter hierarchy before retiring around 30. Then one would turn one's hand to angel investing.

    Don't believe me? Listen in to today's guest Zehan Wang as he recounts his tales and all of the lessons he learned along the way which he now applies to his angel investing.

    Srin Madipalli seems to have tried a bit of everything before turning his attention to building a startup. Fortunately all of the insights he'd picked up as a geneticist, lawyer, MBA and self-taught coder came in handy and he ultimately founded Accomable which he then sold to Airbnb. Since his departure from Airbnb he's focused his time on angel investing and mentoring startups. Today he shares some of the lessons he's learned along the way.
