After a brief hiatus, Two-sided—the marketplace podcast is back!
I’m super excited to kick off season three of the podcast with a chat with Jose Marin of FJ Labs.
FJ Labs is considered the world’s most prolific angel investor: they have over 1,100 startups in their portfolio, including heavy hitters like Airbnb, Alibaba, and AngelList (and that’s just the ones beginning with the letter A). Jose has also been a marketplace founder himself. His marketplace DeRemate (eBay model for Latin America) was acquired by Mercado Libre, which today is a NASDAQ-listed company.
In this episode, Jose and I discuss:
- How FJ Labs has built its unique investment approach using their vast vertical expertise.
- The emerging trends in marketplaces FJ Labs are seeing in their portfolio, such as B2B digitalization and cross-border commerce.
- Some important things that early-stage marketplace founders should look out for.
I couldn’t have asked for a better opener, so dive right in!
