12 Some highlights, lowlights and open questions Highlights Technology and entrepreneurial basis for start-ups is amazingly positive Economic environment is (very) positive Good companies are capable of acquiring follow-on financing (especially public funds are available) HTGF concept is working well Lowlights (Very) aggressive behavior when there is no cake, when the cake is small and when the cake is large Entrepreneurs often overestimate themselves Public money is sometimes treated (very) disrespectful 12 Open questions Follow on financing: Will it happen in sufficient quantity (and quality)? Exit channels: Will they remain open? Scalability: How scalable is the HTGF business? How will the seed segment (both on supply and demand side) develop? Economic success: HTGF and broader impact?
