Startups paused—not due to lack of capital, but lack of conviction. Do we really know what’s happening inside the startup ecosystem, or are we just watching from the surface? We’ve seen companies raise millions with zero revenue. But that fast money often hid fragile models, weak unit economics, and reckless burn. Now, as capital slows, the real test begins. The “growth at all costs” playbook is on pause. Investors now want: • Profit path, not just projections • Discipline, not just decks • Substance, not just stories It’s not a funding winter—it’s a reset. A chance to rebuild with intention. Founders, ask yourself: Can you thrive without the noise? Can your business survive deeper scrutiny? Because when the music stops, only those with conviction will still be dancing. Would love to know—how are you adapting?

VC firms and angel networks are quietly collapsing — and it’s not just a funding winter. Over the past 18–24 months, we’ve seen a deep correction. Too much capital was deployed in 2021–22 with too little diligence — pitch decks with no product, no
