India "Deep Dive" takeaways: 2021 GDP Growth over 11% (IMF), manufacturing hub by 2025, and by 2030 a ~$10T economy, 1.5B people, more urban, still young. Here’s the full recording (https://lnkd.in/e3DdRzC), the podcast version (https://lnkd.in/ed-GVWa). Thanks to Kiran Dutta, Jyoti Bhandari Chandra, Monisha Udhani, Aakash Agarwal, Kumaran Chandrasekaran, Saket Narang, and my fellow Stonehaven affiliate Ameesh Jalundhwala. We welcome you to join the India "Global Group" on our App (https://lnkd.in/e4gscFb) with more Deep Dives, and a recap on the Tuesday Weekly Briefings (register at https://lnkd.in/eWqy_aq). Sadly, I must share news I learned today of the passing of Ameesh Jalundhwala, who was one of our speakers. He will be missed immensely. I truly enjoyed collaborating with Ameesh, and I can say that he opened my eyes to opportunities in India, and we will indeed be pursuing them for our 361 community. |

March 9 kicks off a series of events focused on Early VC, an exciting but tough area. My emotional scars trying to help my venture babies pivot actually inspired why we invest in (and raise money for) top-tier VC funds. And I caution against going direct unless you are systematic in a special way, including for impact like @Kim Kolt. Register by joining our App’s VC Group, and invite others via our LinkedIn event.

ACCESS &/OR ONBOARD DEALS / FUNDS

Per our “wide funnel” with deal flow, we circulate no-name information to make members aware that a new deal is afoot and curate “suitable” introductions. You can onboard deals or funds at www.361firm.com/onb. In initial questions, do not share confidential info as those answers may be shared on our App. We put “no name” portions into a Shared Sheet and App posts per above (with #tags which are searchable on the 361 App).

Connecting talent more systematically will strengthen further the “connective tissue” of our 361 ecosystem. ONBOARD STEPS: 1) Update App Profile, 2) Onboard form, 3) App #Post, 4) LinkedIn Profile, 5) Slide WED. 10AM CALLS: Join our SA Group on our App to receive a cal. invite to our weekly SA calls.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ON THE STRATEGIC ADVISOR PROGRAM WHAT IS THE HISTORY AND RATIONALE BEHIND THE STRATEGIC ADVISOR PROGRAM? This is how I partnered with a family office. After years as a lawyer, banker, and Partner at Arthur Andersen (where I would find global talent inside and outside the firm on dozens of engagements) and EY, I set up a merchant bank anchored by a family office. I later made it a partial “extension” of a single family office by giving a piece of my time and our teams in NY/London/Moscow/Beijing. We started by doing research on request to analyze deals, eventually hundreds. We used databases (e.g. Pitchbook, CapIQ) and our network to provide insights, valuation analyses, etc. Our team went to hundreds of meetings in far-flung cities around the world (Sarajevo, Hyderabad, Togo, Prince Rupert) We would research and approach funds for partnering on our deals We would find specialist talent, who gave us an hourly rate, and Incorporate them into our team We would support portfolio companies with cap-raising, or creating internal dashboard-led financial models to analyze M&A deals or other investments. I even became an interim CFO of a unionized Canadian company in taking over management
Based on that experience, and after hosting roundtables in 55+ cities in 15+ countries involving over 800 family offices, we saw that these SFOs had similar needs to find quality and trusted talent. WHAT IS THE ETIQUETTE ON “MARKETING” MY SERVICES ON THE 361 PLATFORM? As with other parts of our platform, we ask everyone to participate from a mindset of contributing, as “what comes around, goes around.” As such, don’t pitch in our general forums, but you can feel free to reach out to people on our App privately, but do so by trying to help before asking to be paid. By being an active participant in ur ecosystem, you can become known organically. DO I NEED TO CHARGE? No, as some SAs are happy to help the community or a philanthropy, you can choose not to charge or to discount your rate or even take equity instead of cash. DO I NEED TO TAKE ON ANY ENGAGEMENT? No, you have full discretion. DO I NEED TO DO COURTESY CALLS? Yes, we ask all members of our community to respond to other members within 1-2 business days and to make yourself available for at least a 5-minute call. You never know, in that it could lead to something down the road. HOW DOES 361 MAKE MONEY AND CAN I SHARE IN THAT VIA REFERRALS? If an SA is hired via the 361 network, 361 takes a referral fee of 20%. Likewise, if you refer another SA or member, and we earn revenues from them, we share 20% of that. DO WE HAVE IT ALL FIGURED OUT? No, but feedback is a gift. We will figure it out together. WHAT IF I HAVE OTHER QUESTIONS? Email support@361firm or me at msanor@361firm.com
