Current MCL Working Groups: Member-driven research groups
MCL members collaborate in working groups to produce cutting-edge tools, techniques and frameworks, to be used by their fellow market creators

Current Research Initiative: “In what way should ventures be innovated differently when the investor/funder plans to hold the venture for cash flows rather than profiting via exit?”
