In this episode, we speak with the co-founder of TXV Partners Marcus Stroud. Marcus shares his background as an athlete and how that helps him in the competitive world of venture capital. The stories he shares from his Princeton days to those of being the son of an NFL football player are inspiring!

Marcus says “adversity is an advantage” and that you have to look deeper to see how the challenges you’ve been through have prepared you for the journey ahead.
