53. Bull, Bear & Beyond – Molten Ventures: executive interviews: Valuations
In this segment, Wilkinson discusses the current venture capital valuation environment, noting a split between AI-driven companies or perceived winners receiving high valuations and others struggling to raise capital. He explains how Molten Ventures follows the IPEV guidelines, being slow to mark assets up and quick to mark them down when necessary. The group’s exits above carrying value over eight years have validated this careful valuation strategy.
