IDEAS: VISION AND FOCUS

Unlike most early-stage VCs, NYVC invests in ideas, not in people.

People form teams, and teams can be enhanced on the fly by sharing and shuffling skills and responsibilities. It is easier to find great people to help our portfolio startups than it is to find great startup ideas. A solid startup idea presented by an intelligent founder forms a more substantial foundation for success than a founder with a half-baked “me too” idea, even, and perhaps more so, when such founder comes with an impressive background. Many colossal venture capital failures stemmed from the mistaken premise that an accomplished founding team can make up for flaws in their startup’s business plan. In short, even the best jockey can’t win a race with a lame horse, but a promising racehorse will often “Win, Place, or Show” even with an average jockey.

Our approach is far from whimsical. In fact, we would encourage all early-stage investors to review an insightful research paper, Should Investors Bet on the Jockey or the Horse? Evidence from the Evolution of Firms from Early Business Plans to Public Companies, by Steven N. Kaplan, Berk A. Sensoy, and Per Strömberg, published in 2009 in the AFA Journal of Finance, which finds that “investors in start‐ups should place more weight on the business (“the horse”) than on the management team (“the jockey”)”.
