Pressure on Founders has never been more intense. VCs will be demanding exits to release capital for their own survival. What does this mean for Founders that have been "at it" for 5+ years; exhausted and drained? Will we be seeing a new wave of Executives brought in with the purpose of finding a fast exit? Link to the FT article in the comments.

2024 is shaping up to be the year of decision in VC. From small firms to industry giants, everyone's reassessing their game. Expect a wave of mid-career and senior investors at crossroads – stick with their firms or chase new ventures. It's like the 80s cop movies, but with more team-ups and fewer car chases. #VentureCapital #IndustryShifts

Oliver Parker (Partner, Software and Tech Services at Alantra) will share his perspective and expertise on determining the optimal timing for exiting investments as well as managing potential challenges and risks during the exit process and more.
