Do VCs offer resources in addition to capital?

Name Sarah Hodges Partner at Pillar VC

Pillar VC’s Partner Sarah Hodges shares that most VC firms now have dedicated platform teams to help portfolio companies with talent, personal development as a CEO and founder, and PR and marketing. They also help you and your team build community and connect with peers at likeminded companies. She recommends talking to founders in a VC’s portfolio and ask them what their experience has been and how they’ve gotten the most out of these resources at the firm.
