I've walked the early-stage journey with hundreds of founders, as Entrepreneur in Residence at the London School of Economics, an early-stage advisor, and an angel investor.

I've been a founder too. I built and sold Deeson, a profitable, founder-owned tech services company, then co-founded OpenDialog, which started on consulting revenue before raising venture capital. That seedstrap-then-raise path is the one my book maps.
