How do we find the next Figma?

Question

How can we hunt for the next decacorn exit. What are some tell tale signs of these generationally defining products? Is there a place you can find out about the growth metrics of products that you use?

What are some companies that you would consider in this category?

If this question was simple to answer, it wouldn't be a surprise when we see an exit like Figmas.

I think there's a few things though:

- founder potential and willingness to adapt
- product-market fit and willingness to adapt
- crunchbase and angellist are the best bets but you can also follow some of the big/popular funds like firstround, a16z, bessemer, blackstone,

I would be looking at any and all things climate related at this point. Follow all the subreddits and indie blogs and follow the companies making moves on twitter and even tik tok. What you're looking for is a combination of founders, high quality talent, and a serious (but specific) problem. The guys at Figma had all that
