ArcTern Ventures’ Post

This week, I had the incredible honor of moderating a panel on "Institutional Allocations to Venture Capital" at the inaugural Brazil LP Summit for Portfolio Summits. With over 150 allocators from around the world in attendance, we explored how venture capital can drive access to groundbreaking technologies and address critical issues such as climate change and diversity. Alongside esteemed panelists – Carolina Assis from Turim, Rony Porat from IDB Bank, and Thomaz Figueiredo from Provence Partners – we delved into the strategic importance of these investments in fostering long-term growth and portfolio diversification. A big thank you to the organizers and participants for making this event a platform for impactful discussions and innovative strategies! Looking forward to more dynamic collaborations in the future. #VentureCapital #PrivateInvestments #LPSummit #InstitutionalInvestors #FinanceInnovation #InvestmentStrategy #GlobalAllocators #PortfolioDiversification #CapitalMarkets #InvestmentInsights
