The macro venture markets have been challenging for founders and investors over the last few years. We launched the VC Sentiment Index to help investors understand how their peers feel about the venture markets over the next 3, 6, and 12 months.

With the help of Let's Talk Ops and Going VC, we distributed the VC Sentiment Index survey to VCs worldwide. The 10-question survey asked investors how they feel about the current and future macro markets.

Download The VC Sentiment Index to understand how your peers feel about the current market and why they believe greener pastures are ahead.
