Venture Debt Webinar

1 min read

The early-stage debt financing market, which includes venture debt, had its foundation rattled little more than a year ago when its de facto leader, Silicon Valley Bank, suffered a major crisis. This event subsequently triggered a broader venture banking upheaval that reverberated throughout the venture debt markets.

Watch a recording (5/08/2024) of Capital Advisors Group’s Venture Debt Webinar. 

In our webinar, we discuss a number of topics, including:

  • The immediate fallout from the venture banking crisis
  • Trends in pricing, terms, and market activity
  • The future state of venture lending
