The State of Venture Capital in 2023

2022 was a year of shock waves for the investment community and 2023 is full of unknowns. In our recent webinar, the panel – ​​Eugene Tetlow from Juniper Square, Sean Park from First Republic Bank, Jeff Bloom from Gunderson Dettmer, and Zack Ellison, CFA, CAIA from A.R.I. Venture Debt Opportunities Fund – discussed:

• The headwinds facing the VC industry and how 2023 will measure up to last year;

• Potential valuations and why they expect to see markdowns, especially for later-stage companies in Q1 and Q2 2023; and

• What it means for managers if fewer new investors are coming into the VC space.

The rise of AI is the biggest tech theme of 2024, and businesses are hungry for ways to leverage machines' potential to help people work faster and smarter. But AI isn’t one-size-fits-all, especially for a technology that’s still growing, and businesses are still figuring out how to shift and adapt their processes.

In this webinar, Joseph Harrington, Partner at PwC US, Dana Van Wie, Partner at PwC US, and Adam Walker, Industry Principal of Fund Solutions at Juniper Square, explored the challenges facing CFOs as they sort through the power, promise, and potential missteps with bringing on new technology.

They explore:

• How the role and skills required of finance leaders are changing quickly

• How technology and innovation are transforming fund operations

• Assessing and mitigating risks, including cybersecurity threats, operational errors, and human error

• How not to get overwhelmed by all of the available technology in the market today

Capital has never been tighter, and securing institutional commitments requires a strategic approach. In this recorded discussion, industry experts break down the most effective strategies for raising capital, building long-term LP relationships, and positioning your fund for success.

In this webinar, panelists William Stern, Partner at Goodwin, Mark Lewko, Founder at Regulant Advisors, and Joshua Demers, Head of Investor Services at Juniper Square, explored:

• Which investment advisors are subject to the latest FinCEN ruling

• Why GPs can’t just use a generic “off the shelf” AML/CFT program

• How technology enhances access to data, reduces manual effort, and increases accuracy

One major takeaway? It’s all about planning for what’s next—not just reacting to the most recent updates. Mark Lewko, founder of Regulant Advisors, put it clearly: “You can plot out what the trend looks like. This will be the first of many as rules in the banking space move to the advisor space. Be thoughtful and expect more to come.”
