Adam Besvinick

Founder and Managing Partner, Looking Glass Capital

About

Adam Besvinick bootstrapped his entire transition into venture capital through a systematic 2.5-year process of 150 cold emails and 90+ meetings, later finding that roughly a third of his investments came from cold outreach rather than warm introductions. He positions himself as "always a text away" for founders and built his reputation through public writing at VentureMinded.me, where his blog and X serve as his primary reference check instead of traditional interviews.
