#XrisLogbook 99 - Pitching, Planes, Patrons 🇨🇭

219

👍🏻 hashtag#Geneva calling ! Five days of wine, dine, and deal-making. Last weekend was a blast at the Commanderie des Vins de Bordeaux gala, and the rest of the week was all business – pitching our new investment fund to the local ecosystem. Wish us luck! 🇨🇭

👎🏻 Had to rebook an earlier flight to try and beat the inevitable hashtag#delay. Paid extra for the privilege, only to arrive at the exact same time as my original flight. Thanks, British Airways ! And their generic, ChatGPT-written email about ineligibility for refunds under 3 hours? Classic. Guess Brexit ate their customer service department too. 🛬

✍🏻 Geneva's elite hashtag#FamilyOffices, guardians of immense wealth, are increasingly drawn to the high-stakes world of venture capital. These sophisticated investors, with their keen eye for disruptive innovation, are fueling the growth of early-stage and growth-stage companies, particularly in tech, healthcare, and sustainability. While their exact contributions remain veiled, their impact on the European VC landscape is undeniable. 💰
