While 2021 was a record year for venture investment, a perfect storm of inflation worries, turbulent public markets and geopolitical disruption have prompted more VCs and their limited partners to become skittish as 2022 comes to a close. Our Joe Berklund moderated a panel for Tech Leaders Forum: Tampa Bay, discussing:
- What is the current state of the venture/equity markets in the Southeast?
- What types of companies are of interest to venture/growth funds in this current inflationary market?
- What is happening to valuations with technology companies in light of the current economic climate?
- What tech markets will thrive/suffer if the economy worsens?
- Should entrepreneurs raise money now to avoid a major funding slowdown in the future?
