Join us for an exclusive masterclass on mastering the sell-side of secondaries with Alberto Chalon, a seasoned expert with a decade of experience in venture secondaries and the founding GP of Giano Capital. 

We'll cover: 
Background on the Secondaries Market: Understand the fundamentals that lead to a secondaries market, including the motivations behind why individuals and entities may choose to sell their stakes. Gain insights into the critical distinctions between direct secondaries and fund secondaries, with this session focusing on the former.

Key Players and Stakeholders: Identify the main categories of sellers, including employees and founders, LPs, GPs, and fund managers, and explore their unique motivations and challenges. Learn about the role of intermediaries, such as brokers, and how they influence the selling process, including their remuneration structures and the dynamics they bring to transactions.

Buyer Process: Alberto will share his sophisticated buyer process, detailing his quantitative scorecard approach, in-depth quantitative analysis, qualitative assessment, valuation, legal and financial due diligence, and the closing stages. Gain a comprehensive understanding of what sophisticated buyers look for and how sellers can prepare.

Preparing for a Sale from a Fund: Learn how to evaluate which assets or interests to sell and the critical steps in preparing for a sale. Alberto will demonstrate his 14-element scorecard used for due diligence, offering a quantitative framework for sellers. Understand the importance of documentation and reporting, and how to ensure all necessary paperwork is accurate and ready.

Valuation and Pricing: Explore commonly used valuation techniques and best practices for sellers, including how to leverage valuation comparables. Alberto will discuss setting realistic price expectations through different case scenarios—bull, base, and bear cases—and how market conditions, asset quality, and buyer demand influence pricing.

Legal and Regulatory Considerations: Navigate the regulatory landscape affecting sellers in the secondaries market. This session will cover key regulations, compliance requirements, and essential transaction documentation. Learn about the key hurdles that can impact secondaries, such as alignment of interests, governance restrictions, complexity, and timing.

Market Dynamics and Trends: Stay ahead of the curve with insights into current trends impacting sellers, market drivers, and future outlooks. Alberto will provide his perspective on the factors driving growth and changes in the market, offering predictions and potential future developments.

Case Studies and Practical Examples: Benefit from real-world examples of successful secondary sale transactions, and gain valuable lessons from past sales. Alberto will share common challenges faced by sellers and practical solutions to overcome them.

Today, our Founding Partner, Alberto Chalon, spoke at the 'Secondaries & Realization Strategies' panel during the SuperVenture side-event. This event, focused on data-driven deployment strategies and DPI realization, was hosted by EUVC , ACE Alternatives and Tactyc. Giano Capital was invited as an expert subject expert on the topic. 

The discussion was exceptionally comprehensive and enriched by an interactive audience eager for more technical insights.

Alberto concluded with a powerful remark: "Thanks to exceptional early-stage funds such as Seedcamp, Earlybird Venture Capital, HV Capital, Target Global and Speedinvest, committed to the first 10 years of successful startups, buyers like Giano Capital can benefit from attractive returns while providing the necessary liquidity to the market."
