Risk – how do you measure it? – LOB 053



Every business deals with a certain amount of risk. What venture capitalists really think about risk…and how they look at it from a qualitative and quantitative perspective. Do analysts and investors feel the same about risk? How much do you tell your investor about the actual risk? How do people in the energy industry deal with risk? Do analysts and investors react the same way when it comes to risk? Do venture capital investors worry about your competition?

The Language of Business looks at assessing risk. Host Greg Stoller talks with Bill Contente, Partner at Gesmer Updegrove LLP; Bob Goodoff, Principal of Sea View Global Advisors, LLC; Christopher Mirabile, Co-Managing Director of LaunchPad Venture Group.
