New VCs aren’t 💀
as a venture investor @ a top 10 asset manager, I’ve seen the absolute rips that can take place in first time funds.
Some of the best performing first-time VC funds in history have a few things in common.
1. Thematically driven partners
2. A contrarian view of the world
3. Small fund (its substantially easier to 10x a $20m fund than a $100m or $1b)
4. Concentrated portfolio
Some of the best in my lifetime👇
