Benchmark Capital is thinking about doing some public market investing (PIPEs) according to a recent article in PEHub. I wouldn’t be surprised to see other VC firms look at this as a way to augment their investment strategy. After all, there are plenty of public companies that could use a cash infusion and have little ability to generate it through traditional means. I’m wondering in what other ways VC firms will get creative in how they invest their capital during these very interesting times.
