Alma Deep Dive: From Angel to LP, Investing in VC Funds
- Event exclusive to Alma Angels -
Join us for an intimate peer discussion exploring how angels can evolve their investing journey by becoming Limited Partners (LPs) in venture capital funds.
Many Alma Angels are starting to look beyond direct startup investments and explore how to back emerging and/or established VC managers. But how do you actually get started? What are the differences between writing angel cheques and LP tickets? How do you assess fund managers, build your LP strategy, and think about portfolio diversification at fund level?
In this Deep Dive, we’ll open the conversation among peers: sharing experiences, frameworks, and practical advice from those who’ve made the leap and from some Alma fund managers who will share their own views.
Expect a candid and educational discussion where we unpack:
How to go from angel investing to becoming an LP
The different types of VC funds and their structures
How to assess a fund’s thesis, track record, and terms
Typical ticket sizes, timelines, and expectations
The pros and cons of adding LP investments to your portfolio
This session is designed for Alma members curious about expanding their role in the startup ecosystem and learning from fellow investors who’ve done it before.
