Industry News – There’s life beyond Silicon Valley for VC

12월 27, 2018

Seventy-five percent of all US venture-funded startups are in or around Silicon Valley, New York, or Boston – which may sound like these areas have a monopoly over the industry, but this actually opens up a load of opportunity elsewhere. Financial expert David Hall told everyone at the Master in Business event how to take advantage of these openings.

 

Hall is responsible for investing, sourcing, execution, and oversight for Revolution’s (which helps build disruptive/innovative companies) portfolio companies. The fund strives to address the geographical-financial gap mentioned above. He explained why focusing on regions outside of coastal urban centers in North America is so promising – the costs are lower and there’s an almost bottomless pit of talent waiting to be discovered, to name just two benefits.
