Why Founders Get Rejected by VCs: Kamran Ansari on AI, Fund Strategy, and Venture Capital
Q: How do you see AI changing how venture funds operate, beyond just sourcing deals?
AI will transform sourcing and analysis workflows, but trust-based founder relationships and hands-on council remain critical; AI can handle filtering and document analysis, yet negotiations, governance, and mentorship still require human judgment.
Why Founders Get Rejected by VCs: Kamran Ansari on AI, Fund Strategy, and Venture Capital
Q: I'm curious, what types of investments, what's your investment thesis for your firm today?
The thesis centers on FinTech and payments as majors, with commerce and commerce tech as a strong area of interest; flexibility and willingness to pursue opportunities outside traditional boxes have allowed pursuing 'exceptions' deals that show real potential.
AI, Accounting & SaaS Economics: What Founders Need to Know Before IPO | Derek Anderson
Q: What should VCs be asking when evaluating companies today, given the AI-enabled finance shift?
Assess the company's adaptability and the founders' ability to model scenarios under fast-moving AI-enabled changes, focusing on whether the business model is adaptable, how revenue and margins may shift with AI usage, and the robustness of their financial systems to scale with AI integration.
AI, Accounting & SaaS Economics: What Founders Need to Know Before IPO | Derek Anderson
Q: What's your advice to founders right now, especially from a finance and accounting perspective?
Start early with modern, context-driven finance processes and train your systems to your specific business model, while also being aware of potential tax, revenue recognition, and compliance issues that can trip you up later; plan for AI integration as a driver of efficiency but ensure you maintain control and context.

Q: What is your outlook on retail participation and what needs to change to drive more involvement?
The pathway includes new business models and portals focused on different market segments, along with regulatory improvements and broader awareness of the benefits of retail participation. By enabling safer access and refining guardrails, more everyday investors can participate in capital formation without compromising protections.
