If you ever doubted the power law based on actual data that is statistically significant, here you go. A thread 🧵.
I've seen a few threads recently about the power law in venture capital and what this means for individual company returns. We looked at our data on 11,350 companies backed by 259 funds from 1986 to 2018. /1.

Couldn’t agree more Alex. Beyond what they have done in catalysing the global tech industry, @SVB_Financial has been instrumental in balancing the scales in tech, making it more equitable. Hopefully they will be reborn in the coming days & their legacy live on.
