During the past decade we have seen venture firms evolve from being highly specialized in terms of geographies and sector to an industry of firms that is increasingly expanding in order to take advantage of opportunities in new and emerging sectors, markets and regions. Whether it is a firm applying its investment strategy to a new vertical, naturally taking advantage of earlier or later stage investment opportunities in its knowledge "sweet spot", opening an office abroad, or reacting to changes in the marketplace there has been no shortage of ways to grow/adapt a maturing venture firm. Please join us for a lively discussion as our panelists discuss best practices and lessons learned relating to their decision process, strategy implementation, and obtaining the support from investors.

The panel will also discuss the current market crisis and how it is impacting their strategy for the future.
