This month MJ Hudson celebrated it’s 10-year anniversary. So, for this View from the Bridge newsletter, we wanted to capitalise on it by shining a light on ten key facts of the Venture Capital industry that illustrate its state of play, scope, and successes.
We have seen in past financial crises that Venture Capital has had a significant hand in helping economies recover. It is a key player for job creation, driving Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) objectives (“build back better”) and stimulating economic growth. Venture Capital, like many industries, has suffered in the current Covid-19 climate and it is still too early to understand what the rest of the year looks like for the industry. However, we should assume that there is an ever-increasing role for Venture Capital to create both positive change and financial returns.
We selected these facts to ensure that we not only look back to see how far Venture Capital has come in the last ten years, but also to highlight some of the important trends and changes needed for the next decade.
