Charles Plant is a former founder, VC, banker and now a PhD candidate in economics. A key focus for him is the Narwhal Project - or the study of world-class Canadian Unicorns (aka Narwhals) as defined by a billion-dollar plus valuation.
The question of what it takes to build a billion-dollar organization has led Charles to research and publish numerous studies on his findings. What we get in this episode is a glimpse into the algorithms of growth… in other words, the capital it takes and the areas you need to spend to achieve the growth targets that result in a billion-dollar company.
Now, even if you’re not in the game of building a billion-dollar VC backed company, the insights Charles shares with us are game-changing. This discussion will be illuminating for anyone thinking they may want to pitch a VC and it will open your eyes to their expectations and other avenues to finance growth.
