I had a lot of fun chatting this afternoon with The Information corporate subscribers who participated in our predictions call for the second half of 2022.
Amir, Laura, Meredith and I covered a lot of ground on what we expect with tech initial public offerings, debt deals, new headwinds in crypto regulations and enterprise spending. If you are interested in getting access to these briefings via a team subscription, ping me or email [email protected]. We’d love to have you!
