They reached out to us and invited us to come in and pitch. In each of three meetings in SF they were either late or didn't show up at all, were rude and constantly interrupted our presentations, and just flat out had no respect for our industry expertise or our time. In contrast to every other VC their behavior was flatly unprofessional. It is no wonder they don't get in on many of the good deals, at least in the US. It's one thing to be arrogant, it's another thing to have fervent opinions in a space in which they have absolutely no authority. Complete waste of time. We finally killed the due diligence because we couldn't imagine any of these guys as productive board members should they actually invest.
