5 takeaways from Tech Investors Academy

We recently wrapped up Lesson 1 of our online investment course, covering Deal Assessments & Portfolio Diversification. Here are the top 5 takeaways our participants found most valuable:

  2. Spread your investments across more than 15 startups in different sectors and business models to reduce risk and boost returns.
