Vincent Diallo & Joseph Sartre (Interlace Ventures) - Why ecommerce is boring, Why is China at the Forefront of Retail Tech, and Headless Commerce Explained

Today I'm pleased to welcome our first VC in the show. Joseph Sartre is the co-founder and managing partner of Interlace Ventures, a New York based seed stage fund dedicated to technology at the service of commerce and retail, supporting startups that help us consume in a more personalized, convenient and sustainable way. He led investments in companies such as Cargo, Selfmade and Fordays. His fund brings together a large number of entrepreneurs, families, corporate and brands from the retail world, and creates interesting bridges between them and the startups. Before turning VC, Joseph spent five years in China managing finance for Evian and then leading retail &amp; special channels sales. Joseph is also a developer and still codes to improve the processes operations of his fund - and to get his mind off of things.Resources: Interlace Ventures website: https://interlaceventures.com/B8ta website: https://b8ta.com/More about masters of good: Our website: https://www.mastersofgood.com/Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mastersofgood/
