Venture capital has long been positioned as the best path to growth— but is the “VC or bust” narrative fact or fiction?
This live episode of Creative Capital Table is a candid, fireside-style podcast conversation exploring what actually works in venture capital, what’s fundamentally broken, and what alternative capital models are emerging to replace or complement traditional VC.
In this one-hour live podcast seminar, we’ll explore:
- What works in traditional VC and why,
- What’s broken in VC,
- If alternative capital sources can replace or revolutionize VC, and
- How can funders and ESOs better support undercapitalized founders through capital innovation.
This is not a theoretical discussion. It’s an operator-level conversation about capital reality—from someone actively building outside the traditional VC system.
Why This Conversation Matters
As more founders reject one-size-fits-all capital models, ecosystems must evolve alongside them. This session creates space to question assumptions, learn from lived experience, and examine what capital should look like when it’s designed to serve businesses—not the other way around.For More Information:
