I’m Sheel Mohnot, co-founder of Better Tomorrow Ventures and investor in seed-stage fintechs. I joined Mercury at this year’s TechCrunch Disrupt in San Francisco to talk about strategic pivots, how to recognize the right time to pivot your company, and some things to keep in mind when it becomes time for a change. Strategic pivots are close to my heart. As an investor and founder, I've seen my fair share of shifts, both in my own companies and across my portfolio.
