Several elements of Venture Capital make early stage investing potentially more attractive than ever: offering early access to tomorrow’s groundbreaking companies, a growing scope of innovation, less competition, and durable growth in entrepreneurship. The potential is not withstanding multiple negative signals that venture capital has been flashing for the past three years: a lack of liquidity to investors, depressed valuations, a fundraising malaise, and frothy AI hype to name just a few.

Join us on April 2nd at 12 pm EST to discuss the current state of the early-stage venture capital environment. We’ll explore both our bull case and bear case, as well as the opportunities ahead.

The early-stage venture capital landscape is complex – and often opaque – but for engaged investors with the right expertise and resources, it can offer attractive opportunities. TIFF has been investing in the early-stage venture capital market since 1997 and has built long term relationships with many sought after, access constrained managers in the industry. We believe that our proven approach to underwriting, sourcing, and a specific market focus will continue to be key factors of our long term, sustainable success.
