Backing a fund, backing a deal
What does an LP actually look for before backing a fund? How does a GP’s strategy and timeline hold up against it? And when do the two co-invest in the same company?
How it works
One question per table. A guest at the table leads it, without slides.
Chatham House rule. Nothing is written up or shared afterwards, and the music stays off for the hour.
By invitation. Most guests are LPs, with a few VCs and founders.
