The art of the #dopepass

At Eniac, we’re constantly obsessing over how we can be one of the most founder-friendly VC firms around. And not just when we write someone a check: We have introductory meetings with a huge swath of startup founders, and we’re always looking to improve that experience for every one of them.

This isn’t something that’s standardized across the firm; we all have different styles. But across the board, our hope is to be helpful even when we don’t invest. As former founders ourselves, we know how frustrating it can be when you put a lot of time and energy into a pitch, then don’t get any value out of it at all — no intros, no feedback, maybe not even a real answer.
