Rosie Wood is a (fictional) associate at the VC firm Mild Conviction. It's a generalist, multistage fund with offices in London, Paris and Verbier. They're not like normal VCs — they don’t need to do a ton of due diligence to decide on an investment. Instead, they're simply looking for companies and founders that are pretty good. Because pretty good is usually good enough. Catch up on her first and second dispatches here.
