VC ghosting is an undeniable signal of a lack of interest.
If a VC wanted to invest, they would definitely respond to your cold call or get back to you after the pitch.
There are a variety of reasons why a VC might vanish after a founder thought they would agree to a meeting, or worse after one.
VCs say dishonesty can take place in a variety of forms, including exaggerations and a lack of transparency.
Disrespectful founders can also be turned off when they call you names and threaten you.
If a founder says something racist or sexist, they're cut off from VCs.
