I highly recommend that founders read the quotes in this document. My take: Plan for your startup to grow slower and not rely on funding. Bootstrapping and operational efficiency are the words for 2024. B2B software companies can survive at a lower growth rate in several ways. www.softwarebusiness.pro #startups #founders #b2b #saas

The Q1 venture capital data has confirmed what many investors and entrepreneurs have been feeling - a significant slowdown in funding and private market valuations, particularly in the fintech sector which fell 16% quarter-over-quarter. As the US economy grows, investors are cautious about VC fundraising as US economy grows. However, blockbuster mega-rounds are still happening, mainly with the largest managers and closed-end funds, pointing to private market consolidation. The innovation market has always been driven by high-risk, high-growth bets, and VC is an efficient and proven way to fund them. As always, value plays out over time. #VentureCapital #Funding #Q1

If you're building in #insuretech, you've likely heard of Galen Shaffer from Eos Venture Partners. Had a great time listening to her yesterday at a 360 investor round table in Santa Monica. Hot takes for founders: -- A Product-Market Fit indicator is having 3 to 5 contracts signed. -- Be clear about fundraising intentions. Vagueness or casualness can send the wrong signals. You either ARE raising, or not. -- Don't approach 100 investors at once. Take a measured, incremental approach. -- Know your path to breaking even.

Limited Partners (LPs) are holding on to their dollars in Q1 2024 which is impacting the new fund investments, a mere fraction of 2022 commitments. "For LPs, distributions are what matter, and our data shows how low those realized returns have dropped during the market slowdown. One of the data points that really sticks out this Q1 report is that just $9.3 billion of new fund commitments were closed, or rather, 5.0% of the 2022 annual high. With little capital to recycle into the market, LPs have come under further pressure in navigating their exposure to venture. Though the IPOs of Reddit and Astera Labs grabbed the spotlight during the quarter, total exit value reached just $18.4 billion, dampening the outlook of an increase to distribution rates just yet."
