Episode notes
Amir Farha has started two venture capital firms, Beco as a co-founder and COTU Ventures as CEO and Founder. He’s one of the most passionate and empathetic leaders in the VC space when it comes to dealing with people and entrepreneurs. His firm, COTU, literally stands for “Champion of the Underdogs” and Amir truly lives that value.
We discuss Amir’s journey founding his latest VC firm and the journey to finding what matters to him most personally and professionally. Amir discusses how he used tough times as an inflection point to become more curious about himself, and building a framework of values that he uses today in assessing critical decisions. We also talk about courage, building confidence, having conviction and fear.
I heard Amir say:
- Have the energy to be passionate wherever you have conviction
