Current & Critical - Randy Thompson, Venture Capital & Raising Money for Growth in Western Canada

His favourite part of venture capital is how it democratises the right to invest into alternative asset classes, making room at the table for more players who, historically, may not have had that seat otherwise. Randy breaks down the deal “food chain”, why deal flow is more important than capturing Silicon Valley level deals, and the difference between an inventor and a business person.
