Episode #260 features Maxine Minter — Founder and General Partner
of the Pre-Seed Venture Capital Fund, Co Ventures.
Maxine reflects on growing up between Australia, Japan and
Europe, speaking Japanese before English, and raised by a
fiercely entrepreneurial single mother.
Vidit and Maxine explore her childhood, the influence of her
grandparents, executive coaching, the idea of “generative
ambition”, and the lessons learned from building companies,
backing founders and how and why she started her own
VC fund, Co Ventures.
They also discuss the specifics of how the best Aussie founders
go global, the realities of venture capital, AI, partnership,
importance of play, and why the biggest opportunities often come
from stepping outside the boxes others expect you to fit into.
Please enjoy exploring your curiosity.
