EP02 - Investing Beyond Profits: Mohammed Al Rasbi's Perspective
Picture a world where investment decisions are driven not just by money but by a deep commitment to founders and their visions. That's the world Mohammed Al Rasbi, founder and CEO of R&D Ventures and Labs, is creating. With two decades of investment experience under his belt, Mohammed has refined his approach towards startups, one that values long-term commitment and potential paths over immediate financial return. As a managing director at the Oman Technology Fund, he's witnessed the lifecycle of startups from pre-seed to growth, providing him unique insights that he generously shares in our conversation.
With top tips for first-time founders, Mohammed simplifies the daunting world of raising capital, stressing the significance of coachability, adaptability, and a continuous willingness to learn. He brings to spotlight the importance of cultivating a supportive community behind a venture and reveals how certain factors like time-bound social programs can curb a founder's risk-taking prowess. As an added bonus, he gives a sneak peek into his plans for the upcoming Web Summit and his thrill about investor reverse pitches. Brace yourself for a wealth of knowledge, actionable insights, and a fresh perspective on the startup ecosystem as we journey through Mohammed's exciting career.
