The past three years have been unprecedented on many levels. For investors and venture capital in particular, rising interest rates, hyper competitiveness and the speed of innovation have changed the game.

“The world is smaller today. You are not going to see an Uber that goes into China in its second year. You are going to see valuation compression and a lot of money chasing fewer big ideas," he says.
