Lead-Lag Live

Unlock the secrets of securing capital for your startup as I, Michael Gayed, join forces with NYU Stern’s own Professor Glenn Okun to unravel the complexities of entrepreneurial finance in today's challenging economy. Together, we dissect the current climate where surging interest rates are reshaping the terrain for rising businesses, scrutinizing the high barriers and intensified competition for investment. This episode is a treasure trove for entrepreneurs looking to navigate the stormy seas of venture capital and establish a stronghold in a market where Goliaths are increasingly dominant.
Venture beyond the startup scene with us as we also tackle the thorny issues around the green energy transition and the fallout from COVID-induced financial landscapes. Diving into the world of investment strategies, we question the viability of passive approaches in an age of market anomalies and scrutinize the energy sector's pivot toward practices that favor shareholders. With Professor Okun's expertise lighting the path, we examine the forces of political sway, corporate power plays, and technological breakthroughs that could very well overturn the status quo of the investment universe. Tune in for an episode that promises to equip you with the insights to make savvy decisions in a market brimming with both peril and promise.
