Join Swiss Economist and Founder of the ALand Platform, Dr. Pooyan Ghamari, for a crucial analysis of the venture capital ecosystem at a crossroads. This podcast explores why Limited Partners (LPs) must adopt new risk frameworks to navigate a global economy transformed by geopolitical fragmentation, technological upheavals, and shifting societal expectations.

Key Points Covered:

• 📉 Crumbling Foundations: Why traditional VC risk models are no longer fit for purpose in the post-2025 era.
• 🌪️ Three Seismic Shifts: The impact of Technological Acceleration, Geopolitical Fragmentation, and Societal/Regulatory Shifts on VC.
• 🧭 A New Risk Paradigm: Integrating Systemic Risk, Intangible Risk Assessment (reputation, ethics, human capital), and ESG as a strategic imperative.
• 💼 Dynamic Portfolio Construction: Moving beyond traditional diversification to account for geopolitical exposure and technological resilience.
• 💡 Strategic Recommendations for LPs: Embracing dynamic scenario planning, leveraging expert networks, and prioritizing adaptive governance.
• 🏡 The ALand Perspective: Lessons from real estate, global capital flows, and human mobility that apply to VC risk.

Top 3 Questions & Answers:

1️⃣ How can LPs balance the pursuit of high returns with the need to manage systemic risks in a volatile global economy?✅ LPs can adopt a “risk-adjusted growth” framework, prioritizing funds that blend high-potential investments with systemic risk mitigation, such as ventures with diversified revenue streams or universal market appeal (e.g., health tech).

2️⃣ What impact do immigration policies have on VC returns, and how should LPs factor this into their strategies?✅ Immigration policies shape talent availability, a critical driver of startup success. LPs should prioritize funds investing in regions with favorable immigration frameworks and startups with distributed, global teams to mitigate talent-related risks.

3️⃣ How can LPs ensure genuine impact in impact investing while maintaining competitive returns?✅ LPs should demand rigorous impact metrics aligned with global standards (like UN SDGs) and prioritize funds where impact enhances financial value, such as startups addressing underserved markets like affordable healthcare.
