Give First: The Power of Mentorship

Venture capitalist Brad Feld is known around the world for co-founding the prestigious entrepreneurship accelerator Techstars and igniting the startup community in Boulder, Colorado, through his work at his investment firm The Foundry. In Give First, he embraces principles that many Social Capital CEOs have embraced, such as mentoring without the expectation of getting anything in return. When you’re trying to change the world, it’s tempting to try to control the outcome, but often that’s not possible. Feld’s longstanding support of the entrepreneurship community is a testament to how letting go can open doors.
