VC firms and angel networks are quietly collapsing โ€” and itโ€™s not just a funding winter. Over the past 18โ€“24 months, weโ€™ve seen a deep correction. Too much capital was deployed in 2021โ€“22 with too little diligence โ€” pitch decks with no product, no traction, no plan. Now the hangover is here: flat rounds, no exits, burnouts, and LPs closing their wallets. Large angel networks charging carry on small cheques without real value are fading fast. Founders are choosing curated, operator-led syndicates instead. Globally, Y Combinator, Tiger, Accel, and Techstars are all scaling back. Big VCs are busy fixing old bets, not making new ones. The next phase? Lean, sector-specific, operator-driven capital. Founders who show real revenue and execution. Capital isnโ€™t gone โ€” itโ€™s just getting smarter. Are we seeing a short-term correction or a long-term VC reset?

If a VC or angel rejects you, donโ€™t cry. Youโ€™re not unlucky, they are. They just missed the chance to fund the next big thing.
