We're back and broadcasting from Minnesota for the summer! The show starts with a look at rising inflation in the U.S. as we question how the Federal Reserve is measuring and reacting to the tumultuous economic environment. Next, a look at how startup valuations are falling and the changing relationships between VCs and early stage startups. We also have some new research from Applico on B2B tech acquisitions and whether distributors or manufacturers are leading investment into new digital business models. Also covered, Freightos' SPAC deal, Revlon going bankrupt, Materiel Bank making an acquisition, historic data on M&A deals during downturns, and what the definition of a "centaur" startup is. 00:00 - Subscribe and fight big tech! 00:47 - The FED battling inflation 13:04 - Why startup valuations are falling 23:43 - B2B Manufacturers outspend distributors 40:34 - Freightos SPAC + Partners 45:56 - Revlon Bankruptcy 53:07 - Material Bank B2B M&A deal 1:00:57 - M&A during downturns history 1:07:17 - What is a centaur startup? #B2BPodcast #marketplace #podcasts — ?
