As the economy falters, tracking the money behind the money

We unpack the numbers and nuances behind the headlines on the Equity show.

We focus on one topic and unpack the rest of the show. We wanted to know how the economic downturn is affecting venture capital and the people who finance it.

Natasha was not in charge of the show. Rebecca Szkutak joined Alex in the co-hosting slot. Rebecca is an ace when it comes to the mechanics of venture capital.

Alex and Rebecca talked about the state of startup in today's market and if things are as bad as people think. The Equity crew talked about the response to changing market conditions. The conversation ended with notes on what theLPs are doing.

It is good to talk about the money behind the money once in a while, since we mostly focus on the startup and founder side. Today, we did that. Don't worry, enjoy!
