We curate most relevant posts about Venture Capital on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways.

This edition explores the multifaceted and evolving landscape of venture capital (VC), offering insights for both founders and investors. Several sources highlight the critical components of successful fundraising, from understanding complex VC term sheets and their potential pitfalls to crafting effective pitch decks and identifying the right investor fit. There is a significant discussion on the changing nature of VC firms, with many adopting private equity-like strategies, such as engaging in secondary market deals and in-house company building, particularly within the AI sector. The articles also address the democratisation of VC, noting lower investment thresholds for Limited Partners (LPs) and the global expansion of VC ecosystems, alongside the challenges faced by startups due to overfunding, unrealistic growth expectations, and inefficient fundraising processes. Finally, a portion of the content examines the rise and strategic importance of Corporate Venture Capital (CVC), its advantages in accelerating startup growth, and the necessary operational maturity for VC funds to attract institutional capital.
