About
Curt Roberts is a former Fortune 500 executive turned venture capitalist who brings an unusual combination of big-company operating experience and founder empathy to his Mountain West seed investing, while publicly challenging standard VC thinking through his own contrarian belief system. He serves as both investor and on-air coach on Kickstart's Perfect Pitch podcast, where he turns his deal experience into tactical founder-facing content, and focuses heavily on backing founders based on their obsession with problems and grit rather than traditional resume credentials.
