Gita Rusmida Sjahrir: Founder to VC, Indonesia Market Narratives & Kauffman Fellowship Learnings https://goodnewsnigeria.com/random/gita-rusmida-sjahrir-founder-to-vc-indonesia-market-narratives-kauffman-fellowship-learnings/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=gita-rusmida-sjahrir-founder-to-vc-indonesia-market-narratives-kauffman-fellowship-learnings https://goodnewsnigeria.com/random/gita-rusmida-sjahrir-founder-to-vc-indonesia-market-narratives-kauffman-fellowship-learnings/#respond Mon, 09 Oct 2023 00:00:11 +0000 https://goodnewsnigeria.com/random/gita-rusmida-sjahrir-founder-to-vc-indonesia-market-narratives-kauffman-fellowship-learnings/



Gita Rusmida Sjahrir, Head of Investments at BNI Ventures, and Jeremy Au talked about three main themes:

1. Founder to VC Transition: Gita talked about her prior startup founder’s roller-coaster life where every decision directly impacted business growth, team morale, and product trajectory. She eventually moved to the “dark side” with VC, becoming the Head of Investment at BNI Ventures. With her 13 years of experience building businesses and fundraising from VCs, she learned that founders need mentorship and strategic guidance from their investors. She invests time in debriefing and introspection after each pitch session in order to communicate and resonate with entrepreneurial teams.
2. Kauffman Fellowship Learnings: Gita joined the Kauffman Fellowship Program, influenced by her investor brother’s recommendation. The program gave her a nuanced perspective on venture capital fundamentals and enabled her to network with a diverse group of fellow VCs. She explained how the program focuses on challenging one’s values, vision, and self-imposed limitations. She also discussed the internal barriers that hold back people from achieving their true potential such as limiting beliefs and societal expectations.
3. Indonesian Market Misconceptions: Gita underscored that many of the views about Indonesia are either oversimplified or tainted by foreign media biases. She brought up the narrative around Jakarta’s air pollution and explained that while it’s a pressing concern, the story is more layered than typically portrayed. She urges listeners to challenge these narratives by stepping out of their informational bubbles. She also discussed that contrary to the belief that Indonesia is just a consumer market, the nation is fast emerging as a hub for tech-driven solutions tailored to the region’s challenges. She shared her insights on the country’s political landscape such as how grassroots movements, youth participation, and a diverse set of leaders are shaping the nation’s democratic journey.

They also touched upon the influences shaping the portrayal of countries in the news, especially within the US-China dynamic context, the necessity to be aware of the limited perspectives one might harbor, and the importance of firsthand experiences over media-induced perceptions.

Why Skims is successful amid a difficult time for VC startups https://goodnewsnigeria.com/random/why-skims-is-successful-amid-a-difficult-time-for-vc-startups/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=why-skims-is-successful-amid-a-difficult-time-for-vc-startups https://goodnewsnigeria.com/random/why-skims-is-successful-amid-a-difficult-time-for-vc-startups/#respond Tue, 22 Aug 2023 21:12:42 +0000 https://goodnewsnigeria.com/random/why-skims-is-successful-amid-a-difficult-time-for-vc-startups/



Startup funding in the second quarter of 2023 declined by over half its value since last year, falling to $10 billion. Pitchbook Lead VC Analyst Kyle Stanford sits down with Yahoo Finance Live anchors Seana Smith and Diane King Hall about the environment for companies seeking venture capitalist support funding. “There’s 51,000 private VC-backed companies right now and then there’s also… maybe about half as much capital, and so these companies are trying to find a way to move forward,” Stanford says on the struggle to access capital funds. Stanford breaks down the closure rates of U.S. VC deals in the past several years and which industries may be seeing the most consistent stream of capital injected into them. “We actually haven’t seen a rate of closures really increasing in the data, we have seen an increase in down rounds,” Stanford details, adding: “If nothing changes in the exit market, we would expect some closures, probably now and toward the end of this year. We do expect a lot of kind of startup-to-startup M&A to kind of consolidate in some of these markets.” Stanford also comments on the wide-ranging success of Kim Kardashian’s shapewear brand Skims and its ability to continue to garner funding for its direct-to-consumer business.
