Ben Lerer, Managing Partner and Founder of Lerer Hippeau, discussed his early-stage investment approach in an interview published by Sales Hacker. The firm has raised nine funds totaling nearly $1.5B in AUM.
Lerer previously built Thrillist, which later merged into Group Nine, before transitioning to venture capital and making early investments in Warby Parker and Casper.
Lerer Hippeau makes decisions based on conviction rather than consensus.
