About VC Mastermind

By VCs, for VCs.

I'm Jacob Mullins, Founder of VC Mastermind™, Managing Director at Shasta Ventures, and Venture Partner at Village Global. With over a decade as a venture capitalist based in San Francisco—and another ten years as a startup founder—I recognized an ironic gap: Silicon Valley is brimming with guidance for entrepreneurs, yet remarkably scarce in providing strategic, operational insights to those who manage venture capital firms themselves.

I founded VC Mastermind as an exclusive, confidential community for Managing Partners to candidly exchange best practices, solve nuanced challenges, and elevate their firms—leveraging the unparalleled collective knowledge of Silicon Valley's top VC leaders.
