Today's guest is a venture capitalist with a long career assessing startup companies, both as an institutional investor at Hummer Winblad and Disney's Steamboat Ventures and as an independent at his own Airwing Ventures. Meet my friend and fellow start-up enthusiast, Dan Beldy.
Dan Beldy is an investor and venture capitalist, but began his career in the Air Force, flying F-18s off of aircraft carriers. Forget the Top Gun sequel, you got all the shirtless beach volleyball you need right here.
His gutsy early career moves got him roles with leading venture firms during the Dot-Com boom of the 90s and then onto Disney's Steamboat Ventures.
We met while I've been serving on the board of Fooji, and I've enjoyed learning from his deep knowledge of assessing startup companies, founders and markets.
Dan's a great advisor, friend, mentor and family man. Can't wait to for to you meet him-
