In this episode we talk about the principles of valuation for venture capital. What are the fundamental drivers of 'value' in a startup opportunity, how are they measured, and what are the consequences of that approach? Specifically, what role do multiples and 'comparables' play in valuation, and why?
How much of a startup's valuation is driven by the business, and how much is driven by the market?
Whether you're an investor or a founder, we hope this conversation poses some interesting questions about methodology and motivation.
Thanks for joining us.
