About this listen
In this episode of The Sharmin Ali Show , Sharmin Ali speaks with Pablo Casilimas & Justis Mendez, co-founders of OneSixOne Ventures. Hear how two friends who met at the University of Florida started by hosting meetups and networking events in 2016. They eventually built the largest tech community between Orlando and Atlanta and launched an accelerator that helped 40 companies raise over $13 million in two years. After being told "no" to a finder's fee by VCs, the accidental VCs decided to launch their own fund, raising over $4 million. They also discuss their investment thesis, which focuses on founders from underserved demographics, and their strategy for allocating resources.
