Sequoia just broke one of venture capital's oldest unwritten rules by investing in Anthropic despite already backing OpenAI and xAI. In this episode, Charles Hudson and I unpack what this means for the future of portfolio conflicts in VC and whether founders should actually care at this scale of fundraising. We also debate the controversial claim that "pre-seed is dead" and discuss why the fundraising bar has shifted so dramatically, especially for founders building outside SF and NYC. Plus, we examine a brutally honest account from an ex-Amazon employee who left FAANG for a startup and immediately regretted it.
Topics Covered:
Sequoia's controversial Anthropic investment and changing portfolio conflict norms
Has the bar for pre-seed fundraising actually changed or is it just an excuse?
Why geography matters more than ever in early-stage fundraising
The mission-driven intensity required to succeed at startups vs. big tech
