Love Your Fund: A Regulatory Kiss & Tell 💋
Most VCs spend Valentine’s wooing LPs. This year, we’re focusing on the relationship that actually keeps the lights on: Your Fund and the Regulators.
On Feb 11th, join us for a high-proof cocktail hour where we peel back the curtain on the silent killers hitting the VC world in 2026. From the SEC’s new exam priorities to the June Reg S-P deadline, the feds have stopped asking what you own and started demanding to see the Blueprints.

Concentration Risk: A stiff Old Fashioned.
🎤 THE KISS & TELL
Let us help you identify Toxic Fund Traits. We’re sick of toxic relationships. Let’s identify the patterns, look at the hard facts, and learn the Love Language of a resilient fund.
💔 Toxic Trait #1: The One-Sided Relationship
The Vibe: You think you know your startups, but you have no idea who they’re actually hanging out with (their third-party vendors).
The Fact: Under Reg S-P, you are now legally liable for your portfolio companies' security and notification speed.
The Love Language (Acts of Service): Moving from How was your day? surveys to a live Register of Information. Real intimacy means having a shared blueprint of every mission-critical dependency.
💔 Toxic Trait #2: The Codependent Bottleneck
The Vibe: Falling for the same type; every company in your fund is tied to the exact same niche API or cloud region.
The Fact: 80% of your portfolio could be a single point of failure. If that node breaks, the whole fund breaks.
The Love Language (Quality Time): Using Concentration Risk Mapping. It’s about spending time identifying where your portfolio overlaps so you can build boundaries (and redundancies) before a crisis hits.
💔 Toxic Trait #3: Gaslighting via Google Forms
The Vibe: Relying on a filtered, static snapshot (a survey) and calling it due diligence.
The Fact: In 2026, the SEC views static PDFs as operational negligence. They want the MRI, not the X-ray.
The Love Language (Words of Affirmation): Digital Twin Evidence. Providing regulators with live, verifiable data that proves your portfolio isn't just a collection of logos, but a resilient infrastructure.
🎁 YOUR COMPLIMENTARY DRINK CARD
The Signature Salty CCO
For all attendees we’ve got virtual drink cards for a private portfolio mixology session.
We’ll help you:
Pinpoint exactly where you're unprepared for upcoming mandates.
Filter out the operational red flags before they ruin the vibe.

Don’t let a messy portfolio break your heart.
See you on the 11th.
