In this episode of Inside CVC, we sit down with Shawn Hoyer, Head of Venture Capital Coverage at Bank of America, to explore how capital markets are evolving—and what it means for founders, investors, and corporate innovators. From the fluidity of global capital and the rise of sovereign wealth funds to the future of AI-driven startups and public market exits, Shawn unpacks the macro trends reshaping the venture and CVC landscape. We also dive into the shifting role of the U.S. in global innovation, the risks of isolationism, and how legacy systems and political fragmentation are holding back progress. Whether you're on Sand Hill Road or inside a corporate innovation lab, this is a must-listen for anyone navigating the future of strategic capital.
