I Like Founders Who Can Spot Gaps Others Miss

THE LEAN LESSON
I don’t just see ideas. I see founders who see what others overlook.
In one recent deal, the founder had no product or revenue.
But he spotted a geographic blindspot—a booming town underserved by competitors.
It wasn’t sexy.
It wasn’t obvious.
But it was real.
Most chase saturated markets.
This founder found a quiet corner no one was paying attention to—yet filled with hungry demand.
That's what made me lean in.
Don’t follow noise. Find the gap. Own it early.
