In the 4th episode of our miniseries, Rob talks to Matt about his experience battling COVID-19 after testing positive on March 25th. Luckily, his symptoms have been mild and manageable at home. During the episode, Matt discusses the elusiveness of COVID-19 and his biggest takeaways from his experience thus far (as we release this, Matt is still recovering from the virus).

Topics covered include:

  • How the testing process worked
  • What surprised Matt the most about the virus
  • What has helped him ease the symptoms of COVID-19
  • Matt’s latest thoughts (and how his thoughts have evolved over the past few weeks) on on the future of work and business after this pandemic

Highlighted Quotes:

More on the experience:

  • "It [the virus] seems horrible, and they are talking in the news about how people are going to the hospital in troves. So I thought that when you get it you will know...but that has completely flipped upside down for me." - Matt Hayes
  • “The sneakiest part of this, despite the fact that I’m still coughing and I'm still tired when I wake up in the morning, is... I could see how people could go to work and not realize they had COVID-19, but I was also fortunate to have fairly mild symptoms” - Matt Hayes

More on the impact of the business:

  • “We are looking at bigger rounds at lower valuations with stronger syndicates to adjust to the additional risk that is in the world” - Rob May
  • “We invest in people, but when you don't get a chance to actually sit across from the person, that is hard. That is definitely a barrier so hopefully we find ways to mitigate those effects and get to know people in a very real way.” - Matt Hayes
