David Kaiserman, former President of Lanar Ventures, discussed the venture capital market’s tolerance for failure at a conference in Miami. He noted that new businesses can fail 80% of the time, which contrasts with general societal expectations of success. Kaiserman highlighted a shift in investor attitudes, advocating for the inclusion of those who can solve problems rather than just identify them, as traditional Silicon Valley archetypes may fall short. He emphasized Israeli entrepreneurs’ exceptional problem-solving abilities, attributing this to their culture of necessity that drives innovation, making Israel a critical hub for international funds.
