When I think about lead edge, I sort of think about this giant money machine that Mitchell and his two partners have designed over the last fifteen plus years to make remarkably consistent investment returns for their clients.

They have all sorts of unique aspects to the machine that they built, whether that's their collection of LPs, their eight point criteria for how they select companies, the way they do cold calls, the way they construct their portfolio. This is just a totally different way of approaching markets. They're trying to hit singles and doubles and deliver very consistent returns. Mitchell says it's really important in life to be memorable. That's just a great simple thing that you can do. I think you'll find listening to Mitchell today and him talk about his entire machine and the firm that he's built, that he himself is extremely memorable. I hope you enjoy learning about his business.
