The venture business is said to be an apprenticeship business. However, the opportunity to apprentice under and learn from the greats is as rare as winning the lottery.

That’s why I created VC Mastery.

Whether you’re an aspiring venture capitalist or a seasoned investor, VC Mastery is here to distill, share, and highlight some of the best wisdom and knowledge from seasoned venture capitalists, researchers, and technologists.

Every week I’ll publish a number of newsletters that address the most pressing questions that emerge in a VC career. Some of the topics I cover include:

We’ll cover many more questions and areas every month. But if there are questions or topics you’re dying to learn more about, be sure to reach out.

About me

My name is Michael Tefula. My professional career started off at Deloitte in Corporate Finance, before I pivoted to venture capital. I worked in VC for 4 years and invested in pre-seed to Series B companies across a variety of sectors. After a stint in venture, I joined a fintech startup where I was promoted to CFO after 2 years. Today I work as fractional startup operator, angel investor, and an Investor-in-Residence at Ada Ventures.
