The StartUp to ScaleUp Game Plan
Business
Magnus Karnehm is a Principal at Left Lane Capital – Magnus heads up their European office
We explored Left Lane's unique approach to venture capital – running their fund like a sales team with each investor speaking to 25+ companies a week giving them exposure to off the beaten track sectors as well as the hot and trendy sectors.
We discussed the traits of startups that scale efficiently from $1m to $10m ARR - in particular data obsession
We also discussed the mistakes that can hinder a Saas venture's trajectory - e.g. moving upmarket too early
With great candour & humility, Magnus opened up on his journey of self exploration since embarking on the Hoffman Institute process after his father passed away last year.
We discussed how important it is for a VC to maintain peak personal performance as their decisions - and the support they provide to their portfolio companies - are so impactful.
