What expert advice do you have for individuals just starting out and wanting to build their network in venture?

Probably the most interesting thing to existing venture investors is introductions to remarkable founders. So I always say, you know, how does someone entering the ecosystem bring that? That's not essential, but it's nice to know what the coin of the realm is. But I, some things that practically I've seen be very successful are some people map space. So it could be a geo, it could be a sector, something like a technology that is spawning a bunch of companies. And they develop that thinking and that thesis and maybe some prioritization of companies or something like that. Doesn't mean they have to have a lot of access. All this can be done with pretty much public information and looking around. And then they share that with relevant investors. And I think that good clarity of thought is really valued.
