“Short-term bearish, long-term bullish” - Dissecting the state of the European Tech ecosystem with Daniel Glazer, managing partner at Wilson Sonsini

The other day, I had a chance to sit down with Daniel Glazer, managing partner of the London office of American tech law firm Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, as he was passing through Brussels.

Glazer has been in the tech game for a while, knows a thing or two about what a crisis looks like, and shared his views on how he thinks the general market downturn and economic crisis will affect the European tech ecosystem in the short and long run.

We discussed the current (worrying) state of the ecosystem, of course, using the Atomico report on the 'State of European Tech' as reference.

We also talked about what the future might bring for both founders and investors, and why a tech-specific law firm like Wilson Sonsini doesn't need to necessarily worry about wanting for work even during a downturn.
