How can you overcome geographic barriers when working with startups?
In the early days of a photonics startup it was imperative that I build a relationship with the inventor of the tech. I spent on the ground time averaging 16 to 18 hours a day for several weeks, and only after several disagreements were experienced and resolved, did I feel comfortable not being by his side day to day. However, as an investor we have all experienced the erratic behavior of those so gifted in science to the detriment of team empathy, that one cannot fully operate remotely. Unless, as I did, you put into place a person on the team that can navigate between the inventor/tech and productization/commercialization.
