Pros

Affiliated with Siemens- Good benefits. Opportunity to interact with smart Siemens people and long time members of the team who have domain knowledge and investing experience.

Cons

next47 leadership in the US. has little experience in the field- with almost no direct board experience, limited ability to evaluate investment as decisions are based on following other firms, and poor interpersonal skills. There is danger in a leader who is insecure and who thinks he knows more than he does. The leader is not respectful of the other investment professionals or their opinions. His responses are snap judgments that are often crudely expressed.

Pros

Really enjoy working with the team!! Everybody here is great and supportive of my learning and really enjoy the culture. Venture is an apprenticeship model and I've been given a lot of opportunity to learn and grow

Cons

I don't consider this a card but people work hard, and that's something employees have to be okay with

Pros

This is a team of genuinely thoughtful and smart colleagues with founders at the center of virtually every decision. As the venture ecosystem is rapidly evolving, Next47 is setting the pace for how VCs can accelerate a startup’s enterprise GTM motion in a systematic and scalable way. The culture encourages taking ownership of outcomes and initiatives to deepen our thinking on different markets before we meet with founders.

Cons

Not necessarily a con; but this is a relatively new firm and still Day 1
