Have a structured due diligence process. 2. Market risk: timing and a big market opportunity are both important.3. Technology risk: better, faster, cheaper. 4. Team risk: clear founder vision, unique insight, strong leadership and resilient. 5. Execution risk: go to market strategy and business model. 6. Exit risk: what is the potential exit size or channel. 7. You will never get to 100% conviction in early stage investing, you are making decision based on incomplete information. 8. Do both personal founder and customer reference checks 9. An option pool is a must. 10. Interest over background, ability to acquire knowledge is more important than your background. 11.
