Listen "A new life for downside protection"
Episode Synopsis
Venture capital firm G Squared was founded with one idea in mind: venture-backed companies are staying private longer. And with the IPO market now frozen over, that thesis is proving true.In the latest episode of "In Visible Capital," G Squared founder and managing partner Larry Aschebrook checks back in with PitchBook senior editor James Thorne to discuss why his firm is pressing pause on the secondary market as primary investors load up deals with downside protection, and what those protections look like in an uncertain market.Aschebrook also touches on the consolidation of capital with consistent GPs, the uncertain future of the SPAC market, and how founders are coming to terms with the current fundraising environment.Plus, PitchBook lead analyst Nalin Patel chats with host Alexander Davis about insights from the Q3 2022 European Venture Report and 2022 UK & Ireland Private Capital Breakdown.In this episode of Sapphire Ventures' series "GameChangers," Sapphire partner and Head of Revenue Excellence Karan Singh speaks with Unity Global VP of Sales Laura Palmer about how to solve real problems in a category creation environment. Laura will speak to how she drove her teams towards business outcomes and use cases to bring theoretical concepts like the metaverse into practical reality, both in her tenure at Google and now at Unity.Listen to all of Season 6, presented by Sapphire Ventures, and subscribe to get future episodes of "In Visible Capital" on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts or wherever you listen.
