The study analyzed data from 86 angel investor groups and over 3,000 investments to assess financial returns. It found overall attractive returns but a highly skewed distribution, with most money returned from a small fraction of deals yielding 10x or higher returns. The study also examined how factors like due diligence, industry expertise, participation level, follow-on investing, and involvement of venture capital related to financial returns. High levels of due diligence, industry expertise, and participation correlated with higher median returns.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

14. Challenges in Angel Investing
– Deal Flow is critical, and can be very spotty
Especially true for individuals, still true for groups in smaller metro areas
– Compensation and Capability issues in groups.
Active vs. inactive members performing due diligence and oversight.
– Capital Waves
Strong early activity to max capacity often happens before successful exits
– Negotiating leverage in growing deals
Angel groups are doing some later stage round, but struggle to control terms
– Dispersion of returns: sidecar funds and group cohesion.
Spread out the “winnings”? Interfere in the action?
15. Bonus: Returns to Invested Capital
• Smaller deals do get to exits
• The returns to those deals are quite attractive

16. At the Individual Level
• Prediction vs. Control in Selection and Development
Prediction: To the extent that I can predict the future, I can control my outcomes.
efforts to insightfully position for success based on expectations/forecasts for the
development of important market elements. This often includes modeling event spaces, estimating
probabilities and consequences, and forming sophisticated portfolio strategies with multiple options.
Assumes that market elements are predominantly independent of the organization.
Control: To the extent that I can control the future, I do not need to predict it.
efforts to deliberately construct/create market elements, such as defined products, articulated
demand preferences, and market structures (i.e. channels, technical standards, common practices).
Assumes either the non-existence of some key elements, or the organization’s ability to significantly
affect the evolution of those elements.
Prediction is uniquely difficult with new ventures,
while efforts to directly construct markets may be particularly effective.

18. At the Individual Level
• Non Predictive Control in Angel Investing:
– Select ventures that appear most capable of influencing critical market elements.
Create and Influence localized markets, rather than compete in large “ideal” ones.
– Emphasize the current means and capabilities of the venture rather than on plans for
acquiring the “best” means to reach their original goals.
Adjusting goals is less expensive than acquiring different means.
Commitment is more important than Best.
– Encourage the venture to make smaller investments that get to cash flow positive
rather than investing in the resources suggested by market research to “hit plan.”
Overhead trails growth
– Avoid prediction as the basis for investment decisions.
Emphasize affordable loss rather than maximizing expected values.
Control is related to a reduction in failures, homeruns appear random.
