The books (and blogs/websites) listed here are all resources I personally find useful for startup founders, managers and investors. I can recommend them without hesitation. While there are of course many other good startup and business books, I would consider these to be essential reading. This is work in progress and will be expanded over time (but not too much).

I’m a partner at early-stage VC firm b2venture. I invest mostly in AI/ML and B2B SaaS companies, for example LatticeFlow, Decentriq, Neptune.ai, Chattermill, Ledgy, TextCortex, Calvin Risk, Demoboost and Kubermatic.
Before that, I was the CTO at Boston-based Pixability and Buzzient, CEO and CTO at Swiss-based Namics and an angel investor and board member at several tech startups. More here.
In my experience, reading alone doesn’t make you a better founder, executive or investor, but it prepares your mind for all the things that startup reality will throw at you.
