44. Che Voigt - Feel the Boot Interview pt. 2

I first interviewed Che Voigt a few months ago. He is chair of the North Bay Angels and co-founder and CEO of Altwork.

If you have not already listened to that episode, you can get it here.

At that time he was getting ready to release a new version of his product right in the middle of the COVID crisis.

Little did we know that all his plans were about to change. Shortly before the launch, Black Lives Matter protests broke out all over the country. Out of respect to that situation, Che had to radically alter his approach.

We started this interview by looking at how he adapted to that rapidly changing situation.

We also talked at length about raising angel or venture capital, when it makes sense, what kinds of companies are suitable for it, and how the fundraising climate has evolved.

Che has thought long and deeply about all aspects of the startup process and shares many of his profound insights in this interview. 

Enjoy!
