Let's put some numbers around that, right?
So private markets in general are scaling.
In the world of HarborVest, we're raising and investing $25 billion a year across all definitions of private markets.
We are a scale venture investor, but it's probably...
15% of everything we do across all asset classes.
And then just pick up on the point that I made earlier.
We're kind of on a journey in a direction that's going to look very different
10 years from now than it looks right now.
And right now it looks very different than it looked 10 years ago.
So Meta, before SpaceX, was the largest US company to ever go public.
13 years ago, $104 billion valuation.
That record stood for 13 years.
And now a company like SpaceX is 15 or 20 times the size of that.
I don't know that we can use SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI as our case studies.
but I think they are a signal of how the markets are scaling and scale capital will increasingly be required.
There's no way that OpenAI could have raised $100 billion in the private markets 10 years ago, right?
The size of Meta, the greatest of all time.
And don't you even have to just come back and question what is the definition of venture capital, right?
When you're a company that's doing $30 billion of revenue a year and growing at 300% and raising $50 or $100 billion in the private market, is that a venture deal, right?
We call it venture, right?
