Origins S3-E11: Leah Busque, Fuel Capital
A short post on our last episode of this season of Origins. It’s a special one, with founder turned VC Leah Busque! We’ll be back with some exciting updates for Origins Season 4, so stay tuned :-)
Leah is a General Partner at Fuel Capital, an early-stage venture firm based in SF. Before Fuel, she was the co-founder and CEO of TaskRabbit for eight years, and before that an engineer at IBM. In this episode, we discuss Leah’s path to founding TaskRabbit, moving to SF, and partnering with Chris Howard as Fuel’s second GP just over a year ago. We also dig into how she discovered and has navigated the LP community, how she plans to support the founders she works with as a former founder and engineer herself, and finally how Leah and Chris plan to grow Fuel as a firm in the years to come.
