It’s one thing to be a contrarian, but do you have conviction? That question was at the heart of Amit Garg’s decision to invest in a company that other VCs were passing up on. And the result of taking this risk? A 10X markup for his fund. Hear the full story on our First Funder’s episode with @amgarg of @tauventures

Call it hustle with a heart. That’s probably the best way to describe my friend @amgarg ’s approach to investing and operating his AI-first venture fund, @tauventures. He joined us on an episode of First Funders to discuss how he got into venture capital when his OG plan was to be a doctor. He never thought he’d start his own fund, but his love of building things and growing relationships led him to take the risk. Oh, and his correct prediction that AI would soon take over the world, anyway. In this episode, you’ll get to learn how Amit’s calculated bets have paid off, why a founder shutting down their company might actually be the best thing to ever happen to it, and the things he’s seeing in the digital health space that should excite us all -- who knew you can clear your sinuses with sound vibrations! One of his investments SoundHealth does just that.
