Our Nov 12-13 Venture Capital/Private Equity run was conducted successfully on Zoom. All participants were extremely motivated and fully switched on during the course despite the online circumstances with its attendant distractions and technical hiccups. In fact, the only major hitch came from the trainer’s end when my internet connection was disrupted briefly. We had participants from Singapore, Melbourne and Dubai so being online was the only way for all to take part, even if the Dubai participant had to joined from 5am! We are now planning a next Zoom run in December. Please let us know if you would like to know more.
