Description

We curate most relevant posts about Venture Capital on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways.

This edition explores the complex 2026 landscape of venture capital and startup fundraising, highlighting a market shift towards selective, high-conviction investing. Expert insights reveal that success often hinges on strategic introductions and founder-market fit rather than mere financial pitching. Industry veterans detail the brutal math of the power law, where VCs prioritise billion-dollar exit potential over moderate profitability, often creating a divide between investor and founder goals. Recent reports indicate a massive concentration of capital within a few mega-funds, while a thriving layer of specialised micro-VCs continues to support early-stage innovation. Additionally, the texts provide comprehensive lists of newly launched funds, incubators, and accelerators across the UK, Europe, and India, signalling a disciplined re-acceleration of global investment. Ultimately, the collection serves as a guide for navigating dilution risks, AI-driven due diligence, and alternative capital structures in a maturing ecosystem.
