[Midas Talk] Building Product Market Fit Beyond Vibes w/ Pejman and Mar at Pear VC
Kicking off the Midas Talk this year, we're bringing two of the most influential early-stage investors in today’s ecosystem: Pejman Nozad (#1 Forbes Midas Seed Investor) and Mar Hershenson (#1 Woman on this year's Midas List, Mar also teaches Lean Launchpad in the Winter quarter).
Mar and Pejman will walk through the fundamentals of early-stage building and fundraising. We'll try to cover a practical walkthrough of pre-seed and seed-stage technicals, such as:
product-market-fit beyond vibe-coding
early founding journey
why startups fail
founder-founder and founder-VC alignment
scaling lessons
They’ll also unpack how they co-founded Pear VC, scaled it into one of the most respected seed-stage firms, and guided its culture and investing philosophy.
If you're interested to learn what it takes to be a best-in-class early stage founder, this is not a session you'll want to miss!!
