Mark Suster, Venture Capitalist, Loves WP Engine and Takes a Photo with Austin Gunter

Mark Suster, Venture Capital, and WP Engine

Mark Suster has been using WP Engine for a while.  When he came to Austin today and dropped by the Capital Factory / WP Engine offices we got an awesome photo of him proudly holding up his fine new WP Engine t-shirt.  Mark’s blog, Both Sides of the Table, one of the best blogs I read religiously about Venture Capital.  He writes it as a serial entrepreneur, turned VC, and shares his perspective on startups and startup funding.  If you haven’t yet, check it out.

While he was in the office, Mark was also kind enough to give some direct feedback on a new business model incubating in the office.  That says a lot about his style and the sort of hands-on care that he gives the companies that he chooses to work with.  Down to earth and practical.  Exactly the sorts of qualities that you want to have in your VC.

Thanks for stopping by WP Engine today, Mark.  Let us know how that T-shirt fits.  Maybe send us a picture!

I hope this helps.
