Riding the Venture Downcycle: Investing in Southeast Asia with Dmitry Levit, Cento Ventures
This week we are up for a treat as we take a turn to Southeast Asia—we bust some myths about Southeast Asia's VC activity and the narratives driving the expansion seen in the region. The key question: will the momentum survive this downcycle?
You’re tuning into a two-part episode with venture capitalist Dmitry Levit, Russian-born Israeli citizen who is now deemed an expert of investing in SEA having spent more than a decade building his firm Cento Ventures.
