Welcome to The Accelerator with Michael Conniff, where we talk to trailblazers in the world of startups and venture capital. In this episode, we sit down with Brandon Shelton, the founder and managing partner of TFX Capital, an early-stage technology venture capital firm that invests in service-driven, high-performing, and commercially tested military and national security Veterans.
Brandon passionately believes that Veterans make great startup founders because of their experience in service. With over 20 years of military, financial, strategy, and operational experience, he brings a unique perspective to investing. TFX Capital’s mission is to solve real-world issues by using technology to build ideas that are not new to our society.
During our conversation, we discussed how Veterans’ training and experience in high-intensity and change environments have prepared them to handle the challenges of running a startup. Brandon also highlighted the importance of resilience, which comes naturally to those who have been on active duty, as it is an essential characteristic for running a successful startup.
