How is VC sentiment during the pandemic? My first assumption is that they're more hesitant than usual to invest, but I've heard from peers that some VCs are now working even harder to make sure their most promising companies have the resources to survive past the crisis. Something about lessons learned from the startups that came out of the Great Recession.
Currently fundraising. From what I have been hearing, VCs are mostly doubling down on their portfolio and reducing the number of new companies they invest in. Sentiment is strong for companies enabling remote work though.
