BONUS MINI COURSE: The State of the Venture Capital Market

I was recently invited to attend a seminar held by a leading London Technology Law firm.

At the seminar an expert panel debated the state of the Venture Capital market for early stage, Series A and Series B funding in 2019.

This training summarises many of the key points discussed and I have included my own views, comments and opinions based on 30 years of investment banking experience, 20 of them spent advising technology companies.

The opinions, errors and omissions are mine and mine alone.
