In 2018 Delane Parnell raised the largest Series A for a consumer internet startup by an African American.
@PlayVS, his esports startup, has since raised $100+ million in funding total.
This is a story of determination and the early days of his journey 🧵👇

This.
Almost all of the successful folks selling hustle culture to y'all, just had better access to capital.🤷🏿♂️
Car loans, home loans, etc needed legislation to get even close to pretending to be equitable. Why would we believe that VC is going to get there without legislation?

Spoke with a friend at a ~$X00B pension fund who just made a direct investment in a pre-launch company.
Spoke with a friend at a “seed” fund who put together a $100m SPV into a pre-IPO portco.

It’s really hard for unconnected founders to raise VC money
Cold outreach is really tough. Us VC’s get inundated with cold pitches
Instead, focus on building your squad. Find people who are connected & convince them of your vision. Maybe make some advisors
