Dear Members of ESCCK, 


On 8 July our Corporate member IE University organizes in collaboration with the Spanish Chambers of Commerce network in Asia, an online seminar inviting Paolo Giancane, who teaches executive programs for IE School of Architecture and is responsible for a course on blockchain and cryptocurrencies at IE University in Madrid.


<Abstract MC “Private capital raising and the impact of the pandemic: outlook for PEs and VC”>

 Even before the global health emergency was declared in late January, private equity funding had started to cool and investors were already losing their appetite for money losing companies. Then, the global outbreak shocked the world leaving investors trying to analyze the short- and long-term impact across industries and the capital markets. All of these issues relate to investment decision making, assessments of market movements, and the viability of market sectors.
 
 This master class will provide an overview on how the PE and VC funding are impacted by the corona virus pandemic, which investment sector is more likely to experience more outflows and what we can learn from the SARS outbreak back in 2002 on the Asian private market funding.

 Moreover, the lecture intends to offer insights on how investment professionals are all trying to predict the lasting effects of the crisis on markets and economies, and eventually on portfolio allocations.
