Saturday morning, heading to Napa Valley still with bare face due to rush for getting our car from @turo owner after check out from @airbnb in Berkeley and still manage to get this pic while waiting for our @uber 😁 #nutstyle #nutslyfe #nutstravel #nutsinberkeley #nutsinus #usa #berkeley #california #america (at Berkeley, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnO4-v-HlkJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=30okkdsk42we

VC Unlocked Deal Camp Day 3 . I was totally lost at Cap Table lab but was absolutely mindblown at Opportunity Assessment session by Rob Neivert (google him). He trained us how to pick questions and how to ask it the right way. . Quick summary: - Start with investment thesis - Do quick outside your thesis - Train to ask the right questions - Soften on people, hard on issue - Your investment portfolio is very important - Top 3 questions must generally be related to your thesis - Understand what we’re getting with the question is more important than the question itself . More notes 📝 - 1 on 1 interview for valuating the person, the founder, not the slides, not the business plan! So let them leave pitch deck behind. - Be careful when you (investor) think you can fix things, how do you check if you can fix it (it’s not your responsibility to fix it). - Pay attention on how founders take advice & accept feedback. How they REACT is VERY important. Because... EGO IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM!!! (Oh so damn true... *wink NAGA) . #nutstudy #nutsays #nutstyle #nutslyfe #nutsinberkeley #us #nutsinus #vcunlocked #dealcamp #500startups #berkeleylaw (at Berkeley, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnGg0ujHtWT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8emtn5hjjnwn

VC Unlocked Deal Camp - Day 2 . Some takeaways that I note (just to mention a few from many): . Trying to protect the downside does nothing with enhancing the upside. So why don’t we focus to enhance the upside instead? . “It’s not the investor’s job to do founder’s job! If they make you to do it, fire them!!” HELL YEAH!! . Investors are NOT interested in interest. We dont care of getting our money back either. We care and interested in multiplying it. . What if the company gets acquired when all we have is just Convertible Notes? Two options: 1. Get money back (by multiple) 2. Pro Rata (convert to common, # of merge money based on # of ownership in company) Whichever you get the better of the two above. . ALWAYS negotiate the rights to participate in the next financing round. . How to valuate a company even when there’s no traction yet? - market size - composition of team - founders experience - team background - how much capital - etc. . #nutstudy #nutshares #nutstyle #nutslyfe #nutsinberkeley #us #nutsinus #berkeley #dealcamp #vcunlocked #berkeleylaw (at Berkeley, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnEIb8iH9J3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ndtl3uh2tp38

VC Unlocked Deal Camp at Berkeley - Day One . Here comes the day! Got a bit lost to find the room, I’m so bad at reading map :( . Aaandd super duper drowsy due to jetlag coz I woke up at 2am and couldn’t go back to sleep :( . Anyway, here are some key takeaways that I noted during the class: - invention is about discovering some new techniques of creating something - innovation is about figuring out how to monetize invention - innovators bring together invention and innovation - as angel investor, we’re more in discovering talents than discovering ideas - startup is not a business! just like embrio is not a walking talking human being - VC tends to avoid expert founders because they know everything exactly how to do it but tend to reject doing thing the other way - the little bit of stupidity is a recipe of successful innovator because it keeps them learning! - VC speciality is in de-risking investors !! - we dont know how much pre-money valuation until we get post-money valuation - if the only thing investor has is only money, then dont be an investor! - what investors bring to the table is expertise, advise, network!! - fail fast! discover dumb idea or smart idea before anybody else! - if you want money, ask for advise - if you want advise, ask for money - look for consultant that is willing to get paid by shares. that consultant name is investor!! - if you want advise on how to not loose, go to bank! - if you want advise on how to succeed, go to equity! - crowdfunding is not to get money, but to get valuation and validation . Anyone from the class wants too add? 😃 . #nutsnote #nutstudy #nutsinus #nutsinberkeley #vcunlocked #dealcamp #500startups #berkeleylaw #startup #angelinvestor #venturecapital #investment #ucberkeley (at Berkeley, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnAKkOBHL0M/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11tmx0le8di5x

Happy Sunday from Berkeley! Getting ready to downtown SF for delicious eat and drinks at @eatdrinksf ! 🍴 #nutstyle #nutsevent #nutslyfe #nutsinus #nutsinberkeley #us #pink #dress #eatdrinksf #sf (at Berkeley Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm8_LZ6HgCW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cfbj8a439l2i

Restoran Halal di Berkeley: D’yar . Semalam nggak kesampaian makan steak enak di Pappy’s Grill & Sports Bar karena pas sampai jam 20.00 pas banget kitchennya baru aja tutup 😅 . Akhirnya melipir ke restoran mediterranian D’yar yang ada tempat duduknya di dalam (di luar dingin! 12 cels & berangin). . Aku pilih Hummus with Lamb $10.29 dan suami pilih Beef & Lamb Gyro Plate $9.99, dua2nya enak (geser kanan lihat fotonya). . Enaknya makan di Amerika dan Jepang rata2 restorannya sedia air putih gratis jadi lebih hemat, kalo di Jakarta jarang2 ada kan kecuali @luckycatcoffeekitchen . Nah biaya minumnya dialihkan ke biaya tips, karena hampir semua tempat kecuali fastfood dikenain tips, kisarannya 15-25% dari bill. . Soal kasih uang tips ini kapan2 aku bahas di postingan khusus sendiri deh. Sekarang udah jam 8 pagi mau mandi dan keramas duluuu siap2 mau jalan2 lagi 😊 . #nutstory #nutsplace #nutstyle #nutslyfe #nutsinberkeley #usa #nutsinus #berkeley #dyar #food (at Pappy's Grill & Sports Bar) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm8j0DqHkL4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=o6r2g9u917iv
