Nihal Mehta, General Partner at Eniac Ventures, experienced the pain of building a tech venture that failed during the dotcom collapse. He's subsequently founded & exited several successful tech ventures - Nihal was also an early investor in the likes of Uber and Admob – so he’s got a pretty strong track record spotting disruptive companies with unicorn potential!

We explored:

  • the resilience of New York city - despite covid
  • lessons learnt from the dotcom collapse that today’s tech entrepreneurs can leverage
  • the need for tech founders to be able to answer this question: “Are you 1 of the very few teams in the world that could pull off this mission?”
  • how to use Twitter and LinkedIn to engage with enterprise prospects & clients
  • the mental health issues facing entrepreneurs and tech leaders during the pandemic
  • why Eniac's portfolio has been actively hiring ethnic & gender diversity board members & employees
