It is interesting to say whether it would hurt or help vc and seed funding. My theory is that it will help. Seasoned investors have seen recessions before, and just switch to investments that provide the best reward. I think as a credit crunch exists, I think competition for those funds will become slimmer because less people can afford to take the risk of a startup which means it will be easier to get those funds.

You may actually see more funds available than normal. Could be great for our startup, (www.propertystampede.com).
