Here's how Figma's founders inspired an early investor
When Figma went public at the end of July, it marked a revival in the tech IPO market after a three-year lull. But Terrence Rohan, an early investor in Figma and its first board director, saw the company's potential well before its blockbuster debut. "I think you could have very easily written an MBA-style case study on why Figma wouldn't work," he told Business Insider. The market seemed too small, the competition too intense, and the margins unworkable, Rohan said. There were many reasons to doubt its success. Rohan, however, said he saw potential in its founders, Dylan Field and Evan Wallace. "Dylan and Evan were just exceptional, and they had a vision for the future," he said of the cofounders whom he first met during their seed pitch in 2013 when he was an investor at Index Ventures. Index led Figma's $3.87 million seed round and continued backing the company through multiple funding rounds, according to PitchBook. Rohan served as Figma's first board director from 2013 to 2015. He's no longer on the board, but remains on the company's cap table. He attended their IPO celebration at the New York Stock Exchange and still keeps in touch with Field, who is now CEO. Figma is a digital design tool that allows people to create and collaborate on creative projects, including websites, apps, and logos. When it launched its first tool in 2015, the idea of real-time, collaborative online design was seen as "heresy," Field wrote in a post on Figma's website in 2020. "It was a generational assault on top-down, siloed models of decision-making and a challenge to the identity of many designers," he said. Some in the field even told him, "If this was the future of design, they were changing careers." By 2022, it had built a base of more than 4 million users. That's when it attracted the attention of Adobe, which announced plans to acquire the company. But after regulatory pressure, the $20 billion deal collapsed. When Figma finally went public last month, the offering was more than 40 times oversubscribed, and the stock more than tripled its IPO price on the first day of trading. Looking back, Rohan said it was Field and Wallace's authenticity and their sense of self that first won him over. These have become some of the top traits he looks for in founders when he's considering investing. "There's always, like, a long kind of story to what they're building, or the skill sets that they're using — but it just fits them," he said. "Another element that is within that concept of authenticity is a sense of self-awareness." Those are founders who know "who they are, and they know what they're good at, and they know what they need to build." In the past several months, Figma has released a slate of new features, including tools for ideation, prototyping, and website design. Rohan said that watching Figma grow has also given him "more confidence in the way that I underwrite seed investing." He's now the managing director of the Otherwise Fund, where some of his top investments include Hugging Face, Notion, Robinhood, and Vanta.

Why I Just Bought More of This Ultra-High-Yield Dividend Stock
Key Points Brookfield Infrastructure pays reliable and growing distributions with an exceptional yield. The company's underlying business is diversified and stable. Brookfield Infrastructure has solid growth opportunities, especially with investing in data infrastructure. 10 stocks we like better than Brookfield Infrastructure Partners › I first invested in Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (NYSE: BIP) (NYSE: BIPC) nearly five years ago. Unfortunately, the stock hasn't been a big winner for me. Given this mediocre past performance, you might think I'd consider exiting my position in the stock. Nope. Instead, I recently added to my stake in Brookfield Infrastructure. Here are three reasons why I just bought more units of this limited partnership (LP). 1. Reliable and growing distributions Brookfield Infrastructure's total returns have been significantly better than its stock performance. That's because the company pays reliable and growing distributions. Its forward distribution yield currently stands at 5.67%. Brookfield Infrastructure has a 16-year history of distribution increases. During that time, the LP has increased its distribution per unit by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9%. I think Brookfield Infrastructure should be able to continue growing its distribution. The company targets an annual growth rate of between 5% and 9%. Its payout ratio target range is a comfortable 60% to 70%. Am I relying on Brookfield Infrastructure's distributions as a source of income right now? No. However, I view the stock as a great income-generator down the road. In the meantime, I can reinvest the juicy distributions in Brookfield Infrastructure or other stocks that I expect to deliver solid total returns over the next few years. 2. A diversified and stable underlying business Another reason I recently invested more in Brookfield Infrastructure is that its underlying business of investing in infrastructure assets is diversified and stable. That's important to me with the uncertainty surrounding the ultimate impact of tariffs on the global economy. Around 41% of Brookfield Infrastructure's funds from operations (FFO) comes from its transportation businesses. The company operates 36,300 kilometers of rail operations in Australia, Brazil, Europe, North America, and the U.K. It also owns 3,300 kilometers of toll roads in Brazil and Peru. Brookfield Infrastructure also has major utility operations that generate 25% of its FFO. These include 3,500 kilometers of gas pipelines and 3,140 kilometers of electricity transmission lines. I'm a fan of midstream energy stocks. Brookfield Infrastructure is a big player in this space, too, with 15,000 kilometers of transmission pipelines, 16 natural gas and natural gas liquids processing plants, and storage facilities that can hold 570 billion cubic feet of natural gas. This LP is invested in technology and telecommunications, as well. It has 28,000 kilometers of fiber optic cable and 306,000 operational telecom towers. The company's infrastructure assets also include over 140 data centers and two semiconductor manufacturing foundries. 3. Solid growth opportunities Since 2009, Brookfield Infrastructure Partners has increased its FFO per unit by a CAGR of 14%. The company expects to continue growing FFO per unit by a double-digit percentage in the future. And I think it will be able to achieve this goal. Brookfield Infrastructure's management team likes to point to three trends driving the company's growth: digitalization, decarbonization, and deglobalization. Digitalization refers to growth opportunities related to increasing data consumption, especially in data centers. Decarbonization reflects the push to reduce carbon emissions, a trend that could boost the use of cleaner-burning natural gas. Deglobalization involves the supply chain shifts that are moving essential manufacturing closer to home, which helps Brookfield Infrastructure's transportation businesses. The company is investing heavily in growth, with a capital backlog of more than $7.9 billion. Considering the tremendous growth in demand for artificial intelligence (AI), it isn't surprising that nearly three-quarters of this backlog is related to data infrastructure assets. I also like that part of Brookfield Infrastructure's growth strategy is to sell mature assets when it can obtain attractive returns. For example, during the first seven months of 2025, the company generated proceeds of around $2.4 billion from selling nine assets.
