Investing in early-stage businesses is more an art than a science. A key part of that art hinges on understanding the founder dynamics. And for some reason, many investors have decided that married cofounders aren't a dynamic they want to bet on. But this bias is grossly unfair to those who have chosen to be partners in business and matrimony — and means investors miss out on some great companies.
The hesitation is in part understandable; the disintegration of family businesses may make for exciting television, but it hardly fosters investor confidence. Main concerns, as shared by early-stage investors, include the blurred demarcation of roles and responsibilities, difficulty making impartial decisions and managing conflict and the risk of messy board dynamics post-investment.
