Synopsis

The book everyone needs to read to become a successful investor, business angel and startup founder!

A unicorn is hard to get, but Ryabenkiy has already more than half a dozen of them in his life, some even decacorns. With more than 30 successful exits, Igor knows how to pick a startup from dust and bring it to the stars.

But if becoming a startup founder or investor might seem glamorous, in reality the field is surrounded by misconceptions. As a high-risk industry, venture capital often suffers from too much hype and too few results, and to succeed, understanding the principles of both investing and startup building is essential. The experience of someone who deals daily with more than 300 active investments and has lived the ups and downs of the market and still comes out on top, like Ryabenkiy, is worth millions.

But you don’t have to put him on your advisory board, because Ryabenkiy is here to help investors and founders alike to avoid common pitfalls and achieve explosive growth in the startup world.

Drawing on Ryabenkiy’s years of experience both growing and exiting successful businesses, Adventures in Venture Capital uses real examples to help readers navigate the startup world, and to ensure that their investments result in desired returns rather than dashed expectations.

With hard-won wisdom for both angel investors about to get their wings and startup CEOs heading into financing rounds, Adventures in Venture Capital answers common questions facing those in today’s VC landscape, including:

• How to identify future unicorns as early as possible;
• Which founders to support (and which to keep at arm’s length);
• What strategies work best to balance growth and productivity;
• How CEOs and founders can pitch to get investors interested;
• Why having competitors in a new market is actually a good thing;

And much more.

With sharp humour and incisive analysis, Ryabenkiy shares just how he’s been able to become a successful investor across industries, language barriers and continents. For anyone hoping to set sail into the startup world, Adventures in Venture Capital is both a compass and a life raft.

If this might be your most successful and affordable investment this year.
