The management team is one of the single most important things VC's look for when evaluating or even taking the time to look at a new investment. The things they look for in an entrepreneur is:

1. History & Performance: If the entrepreneur has a solid history of building companies or products this greatly enhances their chances of getting through the door.

2. Creative Thought: The ability to analyze and solve problems creatively. Understanding their market and finding creative ways to integrate their product or services.

3. Leadership: The ability to lead and inspire others.

4. Relentless: Someone that never gives up, they keep going when it gets tough, they find solutions to problems or setbacks to the business model.
