Fundraising in 2026: How to Win in a Bifurcated Market

When it comes to fundraising in 2026, it’s a tale of two markets. Q4 data from PitchBook-NVCA Venture Monitor showed US VC fundraising hit a decade-low in 2025 ($66.1B), yet capital concentration reached a 15-year high with half of all venture dollars going to just 0.05% of deals.

In this exclusive webinar, Juniper Square and the National Venture Capital Association (NVCA) join 2025 Top Fundraisers to dissect the current state of capital formation and what GPs can do to succeed in a bifurcated market.

Key topics include:

• The macro shift: An analysis of the 2026 venture climate, focusing on the “liquidity trap,” the resurgence of the IPO window, and the impact of the secondary market.
• Differentiation, brand, and LP trust: When every firm tells a compelling story about deals and talent, differentiation comes from how convincingly their brand story shows up in execution, transparency, and consistency for LPs.
• Operational alpha as a competitive edge: Why top-performing firms are moving beyond spreadsheets to leverage connected platforms to accelerate the fundraising process.
