CVCA hosting 3 "Great Valuation Debate" panels tomorrow

If you’d like to get some insight into what is happening on the valuation front in all three sectors of the private capital world — venture, PE and infrastructure — you should sign up for tomorrow’s CVCA Professional Development Series event.

Here’s the CVCA’s blurb:

How are businesses being valued in the current environment? A host of well-known venture capitalists, private equity and infrastructure investors, business owners, entrepreneurs and capital providers will debate this question in the different stages and sectors they participate in. Panelists will also be asked to “step out on a limb” and provide some predictions as to how they see valuations trending over the next few years.

You can sign up here.

The panels feature:

Emerging and Growth Businesses

Chris Arsenault (iNovia), Scott MacDonald (Emerald), Michelle Scarborough (National Angel Org.), Sandy Scott (Tandem) and Peter Van der Velden (Lumira). Yours truly is moderating.

Private Equity-backed and other Established Businesses
