Welcome to The Psychology of Entrepreneurship, a candid and revealing series that follows Ronsley Vaz and his guests, as they strive to unravel the inner workings of the entrepreneurial mind and explain why even the most successful among us experience Imposter Syndrome.
If you are someone who is holding back, feeling unworthy of your success or questioning your competency as a professional, this podcast is for you.
David Cohen is Co-Founder, Managing Partner, and a Board Member at Techstars, the worldwide network mentorship-based startup accelerator that helps entrepreneurs succeed by connecting them with the right people. The Techstar experience has been so valuable and unique, that it has been turned into a reality TV show on Bloomberg TV.
David has been an entrepreneur and investor all his life and has founded and invested in some of the world’s more prominent startups such as Uber, Twilio, SendGrid, FullContact, and Sphero.
Collectively, his 2,000 company strong investment portfolio is worth more than $100 billion in value. Before developing Techstars, David was a co-founder of Pinpoint Technologies which after great success, was later acquired by ZOLL Medical Corporation back in 1999.

In this volume, Ronsley and David deconstruct the essential role support systems play in an entrepreneur’s journey. They also look at why the most successful entrepreneurs should have total creative freedom and David’s daily battle with imposter syndrome.
