Ask A VC: Menlo Ventures’ Mark Siegel On The Opportunity For Building Startups In ‘The Right Now Economy’

In this week’s episode of Ask A VC, we hosted Menlo Ventures’ managing director Mark Siegel in the TCTV studio.

Siegel, who focuses on investments in enterprise and advertising, has recently penned a presentation on the opportunities in mobile, social, cloud computing and data, titled the “The Right Now Economy.” While many companies like Uber, Netflix and others are taking advantage of some of the current opportunities, explains Siegel in the interview, the next wave of startups taking advantage of this trend will likely be in health care, education and financial services.

Siegel also talked about what metrics he looks at when evaluating a company for investment at the seed or Series A level and more.
