On 6 October 2026 I posted a series of X replies and reposts discussing pre‑seed VC evaluation criteria, three belief statements VCs hold before writing a cheque, and a side‑conversation about delivery challenges in Bengaluru’s outskirts.
- VC evaluation looks for audacity, grit, agency, clarity, and the unfair advantage in the founder.
I also joked with @FirstClubIndia about their delivery woes on the outskirts of Bengaluru and shared two links: a tweet about “building a company in 2026” and a location‑guess image.

- Before any VC writes a cheque they must believe three things:
- this will be a large outcome
- you’re the best team to build it
- and, now is the right time
