VSC Ventures

VSC Ventures is built on the core thesis that it has become easier than ever before to start a startup, but harder than ever before for that company to break out or get noticed.  Our award-winning comms firm has represented over 550 startups incl. 3 IPOs, 16 unicorns, and 50+ exits. Storytelling is our superpower. We’ll invest at Seed & Series A and go to work for you!

Frank Reig, CEO and Co-Founder of Revel, puts it bluntly: "Who the hell wants an EV in a city like New York if there's not charging infrastructure everywhere?" 

This stark reality check underpins Revel's mission to electrify urban mobility. With $159 million raised across 5 rounds from 17 investors, Revel isn't just talking the talk. They're deploying charging hubs, all-electric rideshares, mopeds, and eBikes, striving to be the catalyst for change in a city famously resistant to it. 

While many were merely discussing the EV transition, Reig saw an opportunity in the stagnation: an integrated strategy that combines supply with captive demand. But why rideshare? The economics, according to Reig, are compelling. It's not just about adding chargers; it's about creating a seamless ecosystem where electric mobility is the most convenient choice.

We had a chat with Eric Rosenblum on CLIMB about what makes first-time founders stand out. Eric pointed out that it's not just about personal wins. What really shows a founder's strength is their knack for bringing out the best in their team.

It goes beyond just collecting awards or climbing the career ladder fast. True leadership, especially in the unpredictable startup world, is about rallying a team around a shared goal. This skill, which is hard to see and often missed, is what Rosenblum and the Foothill Ventures team look for in the founders they back.

But how do you spot this ability to boost a team's performance in a founder? It's more of a subtle skill, focusing more on how a team works together and the founder's leadership approach rather than hard numbers. 

The key message is deep: In startups, where nothing is certain, real success comes not just from one person's talent but from enhancing the whole team's performance.

Eric Rosenblum, Managing Partner at Foothill Ventures, shares a lesson from his Google days: finding the right balance between moving fast and planning carefully.

In the fast-paced startup ecosystem, the urge to "run as hard as you can" often overshadows the necessity to "build something solid and to last." Rosenblum's insights bridge the gap between the high-speed chase of innovation, characteristic of the lessons from China, and the thoughtful, scalable building seen in US companies.

In the startup world, moving fast is important, but to truly make a difference, you need a strong base that can grow. Startups should aim to be quick yet also plan carefully to ensure they can expand and last.

Ever noticed how some startups trip up not because they can't build a great product, but because they struggle with putting together the right team? 

In a revealing chat with Eric Rosenblum from Foothill Ventures, it became clear that building a startup team is less about fancy titles and more about the readiness to jump in and get your hands dirty. Being told, "You are the marketing department," could scare off many, but it's actually a key test for picking the right people for a startup.

It's not just about holding a position. It's about being ready to fill every part of that role, whether it's doing the nitty-gritty work or making big decisions, and facing every challenge without flinching. The big question is whether they can flourish in a place where the big break might take a while to come. 

Choosing the wrong person early in the game isn't a small mistake. A bad hire doesn't just lead to an uncomfortable goodbye but can change the course of the startup entirely.

Why are we all talking about Taylor Swift's flight to the Super Bowl, but missing the real story beneath our feet?

In my latest chat with Alex Hall, co-founder and CEO of concrete.ai, we discussed how concrete is the second most consumed product on the planet after water. But here's the catch - cement, a key component of concrete, accounts for up to 95% of its embodied carbon, making it a significant yet overlooked contributor to global emissions.

This isn't just about buildings; it's a wake-up call to the environmental impact lurking in our urban landscapes. With cement responsible for 8% of global emissions, surpassing industries like shipping and aviation, the conversation needs to shift. Three times bigger than the aviation sector, the carbon footprint of cement challenges us to rethink sustainability in construction.

Alex's insights beckon us to confront the hard truths about urban development and the silent emitter beneath our skyscrapers - a double-edged sword in our quest for modern infrastructure.
