This analysis on VC returns is missing the most important fact.
Yes, VC returns underperformed on a 2, 5 and 10 year view. They outperformed on a 15, 20, 25 and 30 year view. What’s the difference?
Innovation.
We had the internet wave 1993-2001
We had the cloud wave 2006-2014
We had the mobile wave 2007-2014
We had no commercial innovation for a decade so why are we surprised the returns were lower?
We have the AI wave now.
This will be the biggest value creation of any wave in history.
Love you @danprimack but VC didn’t underperform, innovation did. Now it’s back so I would not be underweight venture.
VC returns kinda suck.

My mom had me at 16 — she put her dreams on hold for me.
I went on to be a Bruin for undergraduate, and my brother followed 4 years later.
This weekend, she graduates from UCLA with her Doctorate 🎓
👉🏽 It’s never too late to pursue your dreams 😭
Congrats grad!
