Fouad is one of my favorite VCs, because he also starts companies. He’ll give it to you straight—don’t cry or get mad, thank him for it. And he rocks sweats more often than not – you have to love a VC who wears FUBU!
My first company – I started it with two of my great friends from Dartmouth with the dream of applying gasp MATH to the marketing universe.
MTS has become a leader in the high tech Pharma & CPG marketing space – let’s all hope it gets sold soon; I don’t like to dream about gettin’ paid! (assist: Tha Dogg Pound)
If you’re shopping around for some smart capital definitely pay a visit to Fouad. He’s likely to make you laugh so hard that milk will spurt out your nose (if of course you’re drinking milk in a vc meeting which would be weird) but at the same time he’ll add a good deal more value than the average investor.
