FLIGHTPATH | Briefing 006 | Assessing The Anatomy of An Early Stage Founder with Sami Abou Saab

Welcome to the Flightpath podcast. Each episode of Flightpath acts as a dedicated Briefing with a leading industry voice currently navigating their unique path into a new Deal Diligence™, that affects the way forward looking deal flow and funnels might now identify, generate and evaluate new and untapped venture value.   In this Briefing episode we talk to Sami Abou Saab founder and CEO of zigzag - the global innovation platform that empowers entrepreneurs to rapidly evaluate and validate ideas and then to build and launch quickly.    We explore how the anatomy of a great founder aligns with those founders that can sustain and survive the difficult and emerging early stages of their startup journey when it becomes psychologically hard.    We discuss how a great founder has that rare ability to listen and cut through the noise of hustle culture and startup hype to be able to focus and hone in on their key ‘element’ of their fundamental insight and core strategic competencies. Navigating this whilst also having the ability to agilely pivot and shift whilst continually delivering and executing at a very high level of operational competency.    Given this invaluable founder make up and profile, this increasingly means that we are moving away from typical due diligence to be able to consistently identify and assess such a founder. Towards a more consistent psychological and data driven assessment, that can better track, map and evaluate this unique startup founder anatomy.   Connect with Sami further: > https://www.linkedin.com/in/sabousaab/ > https://zigzag.vc/

FLIGHTPATH | Briefing 005 | The Intrinsic Value of Alignment in Deal Origination with Karan Madan

Welcome to the Flightpath podcast. Each episode of Flightpath acts as a dedicated Briefing with a leading industry voice currently navigating their unique path into a new Deal Diligence™, that affects the way forward looking deal flow and funnels might now identify, generate and evaluate new and untapped venture value.    In this Briefing we talk with Karan Madan, who has a unique perspective and story as he works in deal origination at both ends of the venture ecosystem - for both private equity with Clifden Consulting and  also with startup assessment at FundIQ.   The conversation is a deep and detailed exploration into the ongoing importance and intrinsic value of alignment in venture deal flow. We discuss how whilst there may be different lenses and metrics, the principals and dynamics of this alignment apply equally to the early stage founder who is currently looking to now initially frame, market and distribute their pitch deck to investors as to an experienced founder. Who might be now running a mature business and managing a substantial operational infrastructure and is currently moving out of the Series B or C in their venture capital stage into the private equity phase. In order to rapidly scale, generate new value and possibly drive towards exit for themselves and their shareholders and stakeholders.   Uniquely this episode Briefing is also infused with and evaluated via the principles of Stoicism. The guiding philosophy that Karan continually returns to in order to guide his own journey and enable him to continually maintain and calibrate his own ongoing personal and professional alignment!   Connect further: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karanmadankmrt/  https://www.fundiq.report/  https://www.clifdenconsulting.co.uk/
