Dylan Taylor Interviewed by Jose Salgado for #COSMO Magazine
From Jose Salgado
My newest Column for #COSMO magazine. Financing the Space Sector.
“Traditional venture capital and private equity are focused on IRR (Internal Rate of Return). IRR is very sensitive to how quickly returns are generated. I prefer to look at ROIC (Return on Invested Capital). This is more concerned with total return, even if that return is more back-loaded. This is why we have built Voyager Space Holdings as an operating company rather than an investment firm.” says Dylan Taylor, Chairman, and CEO.
