03 Jul 2025

Description

The best venture capitalists combine strong business strategy with smart financial discipline, an increasingly vital mix in today’s AI-driven world. In this episode, Brian Flucht, Head of the US Region for Global Brain, reflects on his 20-year venture capital journey, comparing his strategic corporate VC experience at Nike with his current financially-driven global role. He shares how his investment approach shifted from being a generalist to developing deep, thesis-driven convictions, particularly in deep tech and solutions that act as "painkillers" rather than "vitamins." Brian also offers practical advice for founders, highlighting the importance of storytelling, audience awareness, and qualities like persistence and a strong say-do ratio. He discusses the growing influence of AI in both venture capital and healthcare and shares his optimistic view of the current VC landscape and exit opportunities.
