Right, here's what Natasha, Danny, and your humble servant got into this week: The huge COVID-related hit that public markets took this week, with tech getting hit extra hard. An antitrust brouhaha! As the Vista-Plaid deal and others gets a hard look, we wondered what it could all mean for startups were a bit more suited for M&A than an IPO. Up next we dug into how founders are raising money before they even quit their jobs, a trend that Natasha is digging into. From there it was a Danny segment, riffing on his 2020s piece, and dive into where he sees the most ripe chances for startups to truly change the world. We just hope the capital follows the opportunities. Then it was time to talk accelerators, with Natasha detailing on the Indie Bio class, and my taking of the show through some recent Techstars companies. VCs raised too, with the three of us talking about The Engine and Impact America raising fresh new funds. And then we chatted about the Yuanfudao round, and a Series B that The Wanderlust Group just put together.
