Jason’s argument that acquirers buy time

The article presents Jason’s argument that acquirers buy time, not only revenue or customers, allowing A-minus and B-plus companies to find buyers.

Extracto original

Jason’s general point: acquirers buy time, not just revenue or customers. That’s essential for venture to work, because it’s the only way A-minus and B-plus assets get bought. Rory flagged the board drama: the founder had stepped back, a hired CEO turned the business around, then the chairman replaced him and investors pushed back. The UK-style non-exec chairman model makes sense for mature public companies and none for venture-backed ones. When you have that much instability and someone offers to buy you, you hit the bid.

How larger seed rounds change Jason’s assessment of fund size

The article reports Jason’s view that, if a seed round is now $30 million, a $1.75 billion seed fund with reserves is not large; in that context, even $1 billion is beginning to sound small.

Extracto original

Jason’s read on Bessemer: it’s the same lesson Benchmark learned. Bessemer’s growth team scaled up and won. And if a seed round is now $30 million, a $1.75 billion seed fund with reserves isn’t large. Even $1 billion starts to sound small.
