Brett Winton, Ark Investment’s chief futurist, recently joined CNBC’s Bob Pisani to discuss the ARK Venture Fund, which invests in private companies.
Winton highlighted several advantages of investing in private companies, including the potential for higher returns and earlier access to innovative technologies. He also noted that private companies often have more flexibility and agility than public companies, which can lead to faster growth and innovation.
The ARK Venture Fund invests in a range of private companies, including those in the technology, healthcare, and fintech sectors. Winton believes that these companies have the potential to generate significant long-term returns for investors.
Investing in private companies can be complex and requires a high level of due diligence. However, Winton believes that the potential rewards make it a worthwhile endeavor for investors who are willing to take on the risk.
