Paul Naphtali, cofounder of Rampersand VC on his journey from strategic communications to VC
Description
This week, Catherine Robson talks with Paul Naphtali who is the cofounder of Rampersand VC, the early stage Australian technology fund established in 2013 to help close the funding gap for Australian and NZ startup founders.
Paul returned to Australia after working in Silicon Valley and the UK to sprinkle some of the magic he learned as a marketing and strategic communications guru for a number of highly successful venture-backed tech companies.
Paul has had some fantastic investment wins, but is always looking for ways to make himself a better investor and the Australian ecosystem stronger.
