Marc Andreessen on what VCs look for in startups. Venture capital is all about finding startups that stand out. Of the 4,000 startups looking for funding each year, only 200 get backed by top VCs, and just 15 grow to $100M+ in revenue. These 15 startups create almost all the returns for investors. VCs aren’t just looking for “good” startups—they want something extraordinary. A strong team, product, and early progress are great, but they’re not enough. What matters most is having one extreme strength that makes your startup special. As a founder, focus on showing VCs what makes your startup truly unique. Whether it’s your product, team, vision, or market, make sure it stands out. This is how you convince investors that your startup has the potential to be one of the 15 big winners.
