The Street in San Francisco Where Billion Dollar Deals Happen

I walked the one street in San Francisco where Lightspeed, Accel, and Founders Circle Capital etc. are all within 50 meters of each other, and a single coffee shop is where most deals get made. In this video I sit down with Gabriel Jarrosson of Lobster Capital to find out what makes this place so different, and what European founders and investors can actually take home.
