Thank you Raha Moradi and the team behind AIM Summit for inviting myself and my fellow panelists Ekta Tolani, Jörg Goschin, Ali Abussaud and Dylan Cox, CFA to discuss the current state of the VC ecosystem and how we are approaching our investments. As a sector-focused fund, we see strong momentum in areas intersecting B2B and fintech/financial services.
