MIB: The Venture Capitalists

July 15, 2019 9:00am by Barry Ritholtz

I mentioned last week that Masters in Business just turned 5, and I am rolling out a few new changes. One of the ideas is to organize all of the shows into various categories to make it easier for anyone interested to do an even deeper dive into any given subject. This is the first of several MIB topic explorations.

Let’s start off with the venture capitalists:
