Aydin Senkut is the founder and managing partner of Felicis, the venture firm he started in 2006, with over $4B under management and early bets on Shopify, Notion, Canva, and Adyen. He was Google's first product manager and has been on the Forbes Midas list of top investors for 13 years running.
In this episode of Summation, Aydin and Auren discuss:
Why the best platform companies came from Ottawa, Sydney, and Amsterdam and not Silicon Valley
How capital became a commodity and people are the only real moat left
Why the trait he bets on is the willingness to reset your priors
How defense went from an optional purchase to a matter of survival
