    Sponsoring SPACs is part of the broader asset expansion in venture capital that also includes growth, crypto & secondary deals. FirstMark sees sponsoring a SPAC as part of a continuum of venture investing. wsj.com/articles/first… via @WSJVC

    The rise of NYC tech - Over the last 10 years, VC dollars invested in NYC companies has grown 50% faster than Silicon Valley. The number of companies valued at $200 million or more is up 10x and exits are also up more than 10x. Success begets success.
