Behind the Scenes: Emerging Manager Dinner
Running an emerging fund is weird. You're building something from scratch, every LP conversation is different, and there's no playbook for half the decisions you're making.
We're getting ~6-8 emerging managers together for dinner. Maddi and Joe from Daring Ventures will chat with Antonio and Leon from Coeus Collective to start, then we'll open it up.
The group is small enough that you'll actually talk to everyone. Topics will probably range from fund structures to LP dynamics to "wait, how did you handle that situation?" People who've been helpful to talk to in the past will be there.
Dinner and drinks covered.
Hosted by:
Daring Ventures (Maddi Holman & Joe Alalou), Coeus Collective (Antonio Di Meglio & Leon Li) and Harmonic (Darri Atlason).
