VC’s tightening belts…

By Ben Kepes

A piece on the CIO site suggested that the fallout from the sub prime crash will lead to something of a belt tightening in the VC circles but not a bubble burst (yet).

Salient points;

  • Cleantech could be the first to suffer because environmental causes usually takes a back-seat during a recession
  • Web 2.0 invetment will slow down as the mid tiered companies slow down the acquisition efforts
