#SPAC mania continues to grip markets, and it looks like it's not going anywhere. @GoldmanSachs is now projecting that SPACs could "generate more than $700 billion in acquisition activity in the next two years."
Get caught up on what they are here: bit.ly/309gKud

Nice quote in today's @NVCA #SmartBrief
I remind myself every morning: Nothing I say this day will teach me anything. So if I'm going to learn, I must do it by listening. sbne.ws/r/GcVj
Open discussions with entrepreneurs and investors is a great learning tool

Fantastic data driven analysis here. Clear proof that companies have been able to start most anywhere but also can scale most anywhere now as well.

There's been a ton of speculation of what Silicon Valley is going to look like after the pandemic when companies return to work. I've been interested in this for several years and I thought I'd add data to the conversation based on our founder surveys: blog.initialized.com/2021/01…

Diving a bit deeper on the high #cloud #software valuations....Investors are placing higher premium valuations on high growth companies (>50% Rev) compared to low growth at a 3:1 ratio. When valuations reset in 2016 & 2019 they pulled back in larger, high growth names.
Looking at the software sector on a price to sales basis, multiples are at all-time highs.
