Description
Shuonan Chen is a faculty member at Singularity University, whose mission is to leverage cutting-edge technology, including blockchain, to solve some of the world's biggest problems. These problems range from environmental challenges and renewable energy to space travel and disaster response. This ties in with her work as a founding partner of Agile VC, an early-stage venture capital firm focusing on finding B2B solutions at the enterprise level. Agile VC works primarily with blockchain technology, because of its ability to store information cheaply, keep better records, and allow for quicker and more efficient communication. Shuonan discusses her three tips for giving yourself a better chance of receiving VC funding–making sure your physical location matches your market and industry, being able to clearly articulate why you're the best team to solve a particular problem, and being able to articulate how you are different, and therefore more likely to be successful, than your competitors.
