Why scientists make great entrepreneurs

Scientists make great entrepreneurs, because unlike people like me, they aren’t full of sh**.

They are actually doing things and building things, and pushing boundaries and envelopes. This makes their pitches more grounded and their ideas more credible: exactly what VCs want.

However, we make a mistake in thinking that gifted communicators aren’t valuable because they aren’t scientists.

The world needs both: Introverts that build brilliance, and loud, confident communcators who can sell their ideas.
