An Inside Look At Our First GP Staking
It started with a conversation at a cafe. And it ended with Venture5 signing on to help stake a GP alongside a founder that that same GP had backed previously – a full circle moment.
But what happened during the ~12 months it took to get from the start line to staking? Where were the roadblocks? How was the deal structured? What did we learn?
And most importantly – what can emerging GPs and LPs learn from our experience?
Join us for a special live virtual event where we’ll share all of this for the first time – and more.
By attending, you’ll:
📄 Get the first look at the actual staking model that we’ve never shared before outside of the partnership
👂 Hear the story of how everything came together, including the moment when I thought the deal was dead
🤝 See what ultimately got everyone to a “yes” along with key deal points that made all the difference
🏢 Get a sneak peek into our firm-building process including our monthly meeting structure, KPIs, and more
Featured Speakers:
Sharran Deora - General Partner at DV
Victor Jakubiuk - Co-founder of OnSpecta (acquired by Ampere) and primary staker of DV
Moderated by: John Gannon, Founder of Venture5
