Capital Meets Awesome


How great founders think. How smart capital moves. What’s next in enterprise and AI. Curated by Yana Abramova, solo GP at Pretiosum Ventures.

🚀 Why This Exists

Most people think venture capital is about money. But real VCs know it’s about people, pattern recognition, and psychology.

I didn’t plan to start a VC firm. I built my firm from scratch — no playbook, no legacy brand — just conviction, curiosity, and hustle. Along the way, I realized something:

Founders and operators don’t need more noise.
They need signal — how capital moves, how top performers think, and how to go faster with fewer mistakes.
