Are you a fund with committed capital? Some firms prefer to lead. Others never do. At some firms, principals can lead deals. At others, only partners can. At some firms, everyone is called a partner. Who can lead a deal then? ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Sometimes, it depends on the size of the deal. Above a certain amount, more partners need to get involved. Some funds aren't funds at all. They're family offices. Some "venture firms" don't have money and never did. They might be brokers or advisors.

Both Sides of the Table

The startup industry may be “resetting,” which doesn’t mean a “crash” but rather just a resetting of valuations, timescales, winners/losers, capital sources and the relative emphasis of growth rates vs. burn rates. Deflationary economics are well understood – in a market when prices are dropping one prefers to wait a few months to see if prices stabilizes before committing.

In the typical case, a fund will get an annual management fee of 2% of “committed capital” (the $100 million) for the “investment period” (usually the first five years, or until a new fund is raised) and then an annual management fee of 2% of “invested capital” (whatever the fund has invested in companies that are still active) over the remaining life of the fund, which is usually 10 years.

We – and the other investors – committed capital, sweat and reputation behind a team that absolutely is working on a problem that matters to them and we believe can be meaningful to customers. Let me tldr by saying I agree with Paul’s commitment here to listen to and understand the feedback. As investors, we hope to help founders see around corners in order to assess and predict outcomes.

A little more inside baseball from the VC biz… why VC’s rarely make “crossover” investments, with capital from multiple funds the VC firm manages invested in a single startup (see note 1). VC firms typically raise a new fund every 2-4 years but each of these funds is a discrete pool of capital. If Acme Ventures has a new supply of capital with fund IV, wouldn’t they want to reserve some of that for companies in Fund III?

We announced $1.2bn of committed capital in our latest fund family last month and four of us have been listed on the CB Insights/NY Times list of top 100 Venture Capitalists. Alex Taussig joined us as a partner from Highland Capital Partners where he spent the last 7 years as a venture capitalist. In Venture Capital as in rugby, a well functioning team is so much more than the sum of its parts. I joined Lightspeed ten years ago. It’s been an amazing ride.

By Tushar Jain Traditional venture capital firms typically invest in the equity of young, fast-growing, technology startups. Each individual investment is risky: 75% of venture-backed companies fail to return invested capital to their investors. This strategy of portfolio composition is known as “venture capital economics”. Limited partners, who commit capital to venture funds, have to commit for 7–13 years. funding venture-capital

We were one of a handful of “institutional” super angel/micro VC/seed funds, which is to say that we raised a sizable ($50M) pool of capital from outside investors. The second strategy was to use a portion of each fund as a pool of capital to make Tim’s angel investments. In Fund IV, we are still actively making Tim’s angel investments and allocating a larger percentage of committed capital to them.
