What makes a founder irresistible to investors? In this episode of 60 Second Podcast, I sit down with Shane Feldberg, General Partner at Feld Ventures, to uncover the one quality he looks for when deciding to back a founder.

Shane shares a story about a university professor on the brink of tenure who walked away from stability - family, kids, mortgage - because his drive to succeed was unstoppable. Winning wasn’t about ego - it was oxygen. That inner standard, that chip on their shoulder, is what separates founders who build real companies from the rest.

If you’re curious about what conviction looks like in action, this 60-second insight from someone who sees founders early is not to be missed.
