Inside the Playbook: Mag Rodriguez on How He Got Funded Without a Degree

Inside the Playbook: Mag Rodriguez on How He Got Funded Without a Degree

In this clip of The Manager’s Playbook, I sit down with Mag Rodriguez to talk about the journey few founders ever get to share, what it means to break into venture capital as a Latino entrepreneur.

Mag opens up about growing up in an immigrant household, the early lessons in hustle and resilience, and the winding path from managing artists to leading a tech company backed by venture capital.

We get into the emotional weight of representation, the role of taste and conviction in startup success, and why building a transparent, values-driven culture matters more than ever. Mag also shares how AI could create more access for underrepresented founders and what it takes to scale both a company and a mission.

This one’s personal, honest, and deeply strategic. For anyone building from the margins, this is required listening.

A conversation like this doesn't come cheap.
