After a long holiday break and a couple of bouts of covid for the Production team, Drinks With A VC returns with a bang! Our guest this time is none other than the “OG of PLG”, Anoushka Vaswani of Lightspeed Venture Partners.
Looking at her dual degrees in Economics and Philosophy from Columbia where she graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa, her MBA from Harvard, her time at McKinsey where she led the firm’s first project with Facebook on the launch of internet.org, and then going on to working at Matrix Partners, as a PM at Masterclass only provides a portion of what makes her such a dedicated, sought after investor as a partner at Lightspeed Venture Partners.
Join the crew with a glass of wine and get ready to find out what’s Anoushka’s favorite SaaS metric, how her upbringing of constant travel shaped her outlook on investing, whether SaaS startups should focus on growth or profit during a recession, and so much more!
