"RAISE CAPITAL LIKE A LEGEND: https://go.fundraisecapital.co"

In this powerful episode of the Making Billions podcast, host Ryan Miller and guest Michelle Urben dismantle the outdated conventions of traditional venture capital. Michelle argues that the industry is "broken" due to its strict adherence to stage-specific investing and misaligned incentives, which create significant funding gaps. She introduces the innovative Continuum Fund model, which blends early-stage and late-stage investments to balance liquidity and durability for both investors and founders.

This episode provides a blueprint for fund managers to build a successful and lasting legacy by aligning purpose and profit.
