We were delighted to welcome our Green Shoots guests to our online event last month, where we focused on the theme ‘value’.

The event was possible thanks to the contribution of our expert speakers, who discussed the broader and specific implications that those in the venture capital market, as well as product/service providers and consumers, must consider going forward.

If you weren’t able to attend the webinar, we’re sorry to have missed you — fortunately however, the event can be watched in full below. Before you click play, ensure you read our speaker’s bios:
