alarm:clock has highlighted two new VC blogs from Nic Brisbourne (Esprit Capital Partners) and Fred Destin (Atlas Venture), both UK based.
One is the loneliest number, so I was delighted when I met Paul Fisher last year, even if he’s on the advisory side, he’s still intimately familiar with this end of the market. Then Max Bleyleben at Kennet joined and now Nic and Fred. I’m glad to see we now have 4 VC bloggers- from Seed up to Growth capital commenting on what’s happening in the UK.
(There are also rumors that one of the guys at Amadeus has a blog in stealth mode…we’ll see when he makes an official appearance.)
I’m always impressed by the prolific blogging of my fellow Americans back in the US. I can get a post out once per week at a push- I simply don’t have the time. Maybe now with a bit of a blogging community I’ll be pressed to get out there and blog more…

Come by to my blog too sometime.

…And then there were Five.
Thanks for the URL Shin. (How many Japanese VC bloggers are there now? You, Joi Ito, and?)
Jason,
Japanese VC bloggers blogging in English?
The scene is really pretty barren.
Joi seems to be doing most of his recent investments as an angel (and bringing along some affiliated VC cash on occasion).
Searches for Japanese VC bloggers don’t turn up very much, at least in English. I’ll compile a list of VCs blogging in Japanese one of these days…

Hi, I like your reading list. Also, do you think, anyone may want to venture with me into a world that combines riding/physiology and thinking/history (antiquity and What is Capitalism?) Greetings, C.
