Around the world, many LPs are looking to diversify away from the US' recent instability. So how are investors viewing Asia and what is happening on the ground?

The Asian Venture Capital Journal’s (AVCJ) managing editor Tim Burroughs joins AVCJ’s associate editor Justin Niessner to discuss what is driving investors to diversify into Asia and what challenges they face in the region.

In this Dealcast, the two discuss how Asia is perceived as a market with good deals and less expensive valuations. For example, many firms are able to gain a foothold in the AI market at a lower price than they could in the US. Those comfortable with the geopolitics in China may see even more opportunities to diversify.
