Channel: Slush
Date: 2017-12-05

Corporate venture capital has been an unstable market over decades but it offers many benefits such as investor patience and access to big markets. What about when a VC and a CVC join forces and co-invest? What are the shared advantages and what's different for startups? Digging deeper into these topics are Vice President of Salesforce Ventures, Matthew Garratt, and CEO and Managing Partner of Silicon Foundry, Neal Hansch. Leading the discussion is Jason Karaian, Global Finance and Economics Editor from Quartz.
