As investors, it is easy to focus on the process of making investments and forget that the real work happens afterwards. Dr Andy Round discusses supporting companies after an investment is made. We cover getting the right board in place and different sources of support, including various government schemes.
We also discuss the challenges of fund managers supporting companies, including getting the right balance of involvement and how to deal with difficult situations. Startups and entrepreneurs will find this an extra useful episode.
