On this episode of Startup Slingshot Radio I sit down with Mike Maples Jr. Mike is the Founding Partner at FLOODGATE where he has invested in a whole host of startups including Twitter, digg, Chegg, and Spiceworks. In our time together, we chat about what he thinks founders should look for in a VC, what he looks for in companies he invests in, and so much more. Don’t miss Mike share his experience eating dinner with Bill Gates and the time he taught Tim Ferriss all about angel investing. Enjoy!
