Hany Nada spent over two decades in venture capital after a decade as a Wall Street research analyst, and he's known for deliberately avoiding whatever sector is currently hot in favor of betting early on things like quantum computing and semiconductor chips before they became crowded. He focuses mainly on deep tech with a particular interest in gaming, pushes founders to expand from niche technical uses into bigger markets, judges product readiness by comparing startups to early versions of Windows, and even sees how a founder manages to reach him through a warm introduction as a sign of how well they'll run their company.
