Generally try to avoid VCs who will force you towards outcomes and projects that you, your business or team cannot deliver on.
No need to be hungry beyond a point - important to deliver consistent real value

Any specific names? Trying to get a factual sense of perception vs reality

I guess Tiger or SoftBank or any other big name that pumped companies to $50B+ valuations without any profits or significant revenue.
Or just take out a list of Theranos or WeWork investors 😂

Winter. Take whatever is available. Or atleast have a low threshold for judging VCs at this point.

It depends on the sector. As well as the capital raise requirement. Always try to get two funds in it that is possible

People should call this out more. What are examples around you where VCs have done something bad to a startup?
Know a cousin who is a founder. Tells me with experience that VCs in India only operate in FOMO. Unless you tell them another VC is looking to invest in you, they will NEVER invest in you.
They need fomo to operate
Only exception...
