“My first meeting with Wayne surprised me as I thought he was a very typical investor analyst. In actual fact, he has more passion for startups' products, their potential, and especially the technical parts. His calm personality makes him a great listener as he is sharp at observing and listening to every single detail. Conversation with Wayne always ended with more thoughts, ideas, and suggestions as he often pays attention more than numbers and metrics.”
