> Companies positioned to achieve such scale should consider it, but those that don’t meet the threshold (e.g. $200 million ARR with 30% yearly top-line growth) would benefit more from focusing on the private equity path
I’ve found that the founder community is woefully undereducated on the potentials of exiting to private equity. And, I believe it’s partially because VC’s (and YC) want founders to shoot for the moon instead of taking a lower (albeit life changing) outcome. I feel like there’s a giant opportunity for a PE firm that simply invests in founder public relations and educates them on the path to a PE exit.
