Alister Coleman: backing mission-led startups that are destined to become Folklore

On the show today I have Alister Coleman, he’s founder and Managing Partner of Folklore Ventures, they just rebranded, their focus is on helping founders launch exciting new ideas, and shepherding them towards becoming Folklore. Before diving into VC, Alister was a founder himself, doing the hard-yards to launch, build and eventually sell a software business. He knows well the commitment it takes, and the sacrifice, to give birth to a startup. And in our conversation he explained that it’s a very human process, that it’s not the markets, or the mechanics of the product, its human strength and frailty that makes all the difference. All the show notes are on my website at www.johntreadgold.com And if you had any feelings about this one, leave a review on iTunes, and that might just help other people find the show. Enjoy
