Good enough is no longer good enough for a transforming venture capital industry.

"Are we going to go back to a world where you can have the type of multiple on (the) top line that we seemed to have even three or four years ago? My sense is no. I think again the market has matured, including the public markets. They see tech companies for what they are, which is a much more scalable business, but not infinitely scalable business with no attachment to financial reality whatsoever."

Techstars CEO Maelle Gavet shares what's really going on in the venture industry with Pensions & Investments.
