At Govo, we are always paying attention to the larger trends affecting the state of venture capital. Here are a few words from one of our general partners, Jonathan Kilman, on this week’s election: “Looking at the macrotrends arising from this election cycle, we see a likely deregulating environment generating opportunity for early-stage companies to earn market share from incumbents who have historically benefited from regulation-as-competition-filter. This opportunity?should apply across market sectors, at the federal level and in state and local jurisdictions that exhibited a stronger rightward tilt in the elections.” Rob Panepinto, 1858 Capital Partners
