What the FoaK is Deep Tech VC
During my first week at work, I was asked to review the deck for a certain energy storage startup, the founder of which was expected to visit us later during the day. Very diligently, I started taking notes and preparing questions for this Ivy League PhD founder with over a decade of experience in the industry. It might be useful to add here that I was 23 and had a cumulative 15 months of odd internships for work experience at that point. Anyway, four slides into the deck I realize that this company is essentially trying to defy all practical thermodynamic principles to achieve ideal states that were only talked about in my engineering textbooks - a technology so cutting edge that even Google Scholar would only have a handful of papers on it. Naturally, I sat like a starstruck fanboy throughout the meeting letting my colleagues do the talking while I learned how Deep Tech Venture Capital actually works (just kidding, I still haven’t figured it out lol).
