因此,当硅谷的科技行业投资者讲述他们10年来的心得体会时,我们应该好好听一听。早期投资机构First Round Capital近来发表了回首创立头10年的种种发现。它回顾了投资过的300家公司和600名创始人,从数据中剔除一个巨大的异常值——优步(Uber),然后评估各企业的价值从初始投资到退出投资时(或当前)的变化。
There were some deeply unsurprising findings (going to a great university helps; technology matters more in business-to-business than to consumer companies; a founder who has worked at Twitter, Facebook, Microsoft, Apple or Google is a plus). But it also came up with some data that upset a number of early-stage investing precepts.
他们总结出的发现有一些在深层次上不足为奇——进一所顶级大学会有帮助;比起消费者企业,技术对B2B企业更重要;在推特(Twitter)、Facebook、微软(Microsoft)、苹果(Apple)或谷歌(Google)的工作经验对创始人是个有利条件。不过他们拿出的数据也推翻了好几条早期投资成见。
It found that the portfolio teams with at least one female founder outperformed all-male founding teams by more than 60 per cent, and that younger teams outperformed older groups. The wisdom that comes from experience did not pay from an investor point of view because the data showed repeat founders performed no better than first-time founders (mostly because initial valuations were higher). Gratifyingly for believers in collective wisdom, however, teams outperformed solo founders by a massive margin.
