On this episode of The Backbone, I chat with Steve about:
- His journey into tech with stints in investment banking at Lazard, TD and Jeffries, buyside at North Bridge Growth Equity prior to making the jump to the operating side.
- Flywheel and what it’s all about.
- Transitioning between a sell side investment banker, to the buyside investing in growth stage tech companies and then operating.
- Considerations when determining the amount of capital to raise?(At Cybereason, Steve helped the company raise $100M from Softbank Flywheel raised $9M this year.)
- The importance of the finance function at a technology company.
We close things off with a quickfire round:
- Your go to online resource for all things startup finance related
- Your favourite productivity hack
- Tech jargon that makes you cringe
- The best advise you’ve received
- One thing you don’t leave the office before finishing
