Interview with Clint Chao – Moment Ventures Co-Founder
“What we try to do is work with entrepreneurs to create a good ‘moment’ of force to help them with these early stages of being an entrepreneur and a founder. [It’s] not an easy journey and it’s nice to have a partner to be able to go through it with them. That’s what I aspire to do.” —On today’s episode of The Irresistible Factor, I am excited to be joined by Clint Chao, Co-Founder of Moment Ventures; an early-stage technology venture capital firm based out of Palo Alto, California. Moment Ventures invests in companies and entrepreneurs who are building next-generation technology solutions to help with things like distribution, logistics and managing, and getting products on the shelves of a wide range of retailers.
