“The more I speak to other VCs and understand how they run their business, especially on the portfolio value-add side, the more I notice it’s intentionally low touch. It’s chatting maybe once a quarter about how the business is generally doing. We like to build deeper personal relationships. We go to their offices and spend a lot of time with them.”
