From crisis to growth: Navigating portfolio triage in venture capital with Michael Stucky
Description
In the high-stakes context of venture capital, portfolio triage isn't just a strategy – it's a survival skill.
As markets shift and startups struggle, VCs face the brutal task of deciding which companies to save and which to let go. But it's not just about cold, hard numbers. It's a delicate dance of managing expectations, balancing resources, and sometimes delivering hard truths to passionate founders
Michael Stucky is Chief Investment Officer at Serpentine Ventures and a coach and mentor of young entrepreneurs and spin-off companies from ETH Zurich (ETHZ).
In this episode, we dive into the trenches with Michael and explore how VCs navigate the treacherous waters of portfolio triage, and what it means for both investors and startups when the lifeboats are limited and not everyone can make the cut.
