The race to build the next trillion dollar company

They were private companies before the hot 2025 class of IPOs like CoreWeave (CRWV) and Gemini (GEMI) came to market. These companies had leaders who had to raise capital to fuel their growth ambitions on what they believed to be bold industry opportunities. Much of that capital that flows into private companies comes from the coffers of venture capitalists who aren’t afraid of making big bets on upstarts. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi talks on the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast with one of those risk-takers, M13 co-founder and partner Carter Reum. M13 has invested in over 200 companies with 52 exits and 15 unicorns like Coinbase (COIN), Lyft (LYFT), and ClassPass. The company boasts more than $1.3 billion in assets under management. Reum shares his perspective on a red-hot year for markets and where asset prices may be headed next. He highlights several key investing trends he is leaning into with his firm’s capital.
