Abstract

This chapter broadly focuses on the major external undercurrents, which have emerged post COVID-response. These trends are likely to impact venture capital in terms of existing portfolio firms and new investment opportunities. The six major trends detailed include changes to industrial structures, alterations to consumer behavior, mass digitization, the increased role of home as a center of human gravity, public health apprehensions, and the abolition of the middle class in developed countries. This chapter also illustrates investment opportunities in specific segments of the economy related to these major trends. Lastly, the chapter discusses the likely sources of venture capital transactions in the COVID era, which may consist of the privatization of state firms, disposals from major multinationals, and founders.
