May 21, 2020 Mark Goldberg - partner at the venture capital firm Index Ventures , shares how venture money is jet fuel; a business will either take off like a rocket or explode on the launch pad, with very little room in between. Far from the role of small business owner played by most guests, Mark provides insight into the disparate results for the companies in his portfolio - wild success and wildly large layoffs. Drawing from more than a decade as an investor, Mark shares about the stock market, the change in the fundraising climate, and how he sees the world of finance evolving in the wave and wake of COVID-19.
