THE “DEVELOPING” VC MANAGER

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

The way venture capital firms are classified by limited partners (LPs) can be overly broad and overlook significant differences between firms. A new category, "developing managers," is proposed to describe firms that have demonstrated early success and are on track to become established, but are not yet at that level. By asking the right questions and considering a firm's strategy, growth, and performance, LPs can better understand a firm's potential and make more informed investment decisions.
