Mastering the VC Game
Jeff Bussgang, i4cp board member and general partner at Flybridge Capital Partners, provides a 360-degree view of the venture capital space in his new book, titled Mastering the VC Game. The book, now available for purchase in all major bookstores, shows how the game is played from both a VC's perspective and the perspective of a start-up.
