Magical presentations. Fast. Easy. Beautiful

The video call is the new call

Some positive culture changes in this time of remote working, from my own experience, and observing my venture capitalist wife:

  • Calls that were, well, just calls, are now almost all video calls

  • Things start on time, on the dot (Germany-style)

  • Small talk formalities are shorter, but much more effective with the video picture present

  • Investors can size up the management team of a startup earlier in the process

  • Body language makes it easier to adjust the flow of the presentation (in cases of boredom, confusion, and/or excitement and interest)
