We asked Yana Abramova, Partner at Pretiosum Ventures, who went through Draper University, to have a chat with Tim Draper at EMERGE about what the future holds for investors. The world will never be the same. Yet what does it actually mean for investors? How the current pandemic and crisis are changing the industries, and how they are affecting investment trends. These and many more other questions will be answered by Draper at EMERGE Venture Night.
