Both Sides of the Table

NOVEMBER 3, 2009

This is part of my ongoing series of posts and I need to file this one under both Raising Venture Capital and Startup Advice.

For the past decade, Capital Factory has been building a pipeline of tech startups and investment rights and now we’re opening up to everyone through AngelList.

But the reality is that “global warming” massively blunted the effects of winter and my prognosis for VC fundings of entrepreneurs in 2017–2018 is now very sunny indeed. This past year was also the year that startup boards also got more disciplined about containing burn rates and pushing for companies to be run more pragmatically.

I say ecosystem as opposed to industry because it is not just the VC funds themselves that are imploding, instead the collapse includes entrepreneurs and startups that were funded by VCs, angel investors, service providers like lawyers, bankers and accountants as well as limited partner investors in VC funds.

I do want to devote some of this post to defending the VC business on one important point, there are times when a company is not deserving of continued funding and/or should be shut down to preserve investor capital. In normal times the term sheet and due diligence process all but guaranteed the investment as far as the startup was concerned.
