In a recent post published on VentureBeat, Christian Claussen, a managing partner at European VC firm Ventech, condemned all value-add VC models. In his post, likely a response to recent articles supporting the model from OpenView founding partner Scott Maxwell as well as Brad Feld and Marc Andreessen, Claussen proceeds to pick apart VC value-add from every angle. While he makes some compelling arguments, Claussen largely misses the point.
