GroveStreet moderated a panel of GPs exploring sectors of opportunity in venture capital beyond the AI frenzy.

As 2023 unfolded public markets rallied and fundamentals held up, delaying the anticipated reckoning. Midway through the year we see swirling crosscurrents in venture that need to be carefully considered and monitored.
