Last week Francisco Guzman and Magdalena Guzman, President and CEO of the ACVC, participated in the annual Global Venture Capital Congress (GVCC), an event that brings together executives from the leading global Venture Capital associations.
At the extraordinary meeting held in Tokyo, which became the largest to date bringing together 18 associations, very relevant discussions were held on how to lead these institutions, the role of each one in accelerating the startup ecosystem, how to cooperate with each other, and the pains and successes that each one has faced in recent times.
In addition, during the two-day event, the current perspective of the industry from institutional LPs and large Japanese corporations, the state of fundraising in Europe, and the geopolitical trends of each participating country were analyzed. There were also activities such as a learning space on how to develop an effective public policy plan and a sustainability model for these non-profit institutions.
We are especially grateful for the invitation to the ACVC from GVCC and the great learning provided by our colleagues from the participating associations:
