The LPs as Co-Investors Conundrum

LPs want more direct co-invest access. Most firms aren't running the campaign-style process that would deliver it. Where do you actually land? Vote on all three — results update live.

Breakouts

From Yes to Win

You know you want to do this deal. Full body yes. What's between you and the wire transfer?

Whatever sourcing, triage, and personal due diligence you did, it's done. You're a full-body yes. Now what?

Internal → IC
Internal Conviction → IC
"I have to get others on my team on board."
You have to prepare, socialize, get on the IC agenda, present your take, and prove this is 'our' kind of deal. The work between your yes and the firm's yes.
Open track
Syndicate → VCs
Syndicate to VCs
"I'm a smaller check that needs to come in alongside a powerful syndicate."
The founder has the round half-circled. You need to make sure the company will have value-add investors alongside you — and you need to do it without burning your relationships or your time.
Open track
Offer → LPs
Offer to LPs
"I'm a good size check, the syndicate solves itself. But my LPs want co-invest opportunities."
You have to get this to them in a way they can digest, and keep them primed for opportunities that move faster than they're used to deciding on. SPV mechanics, comms cadence, soft pre-circling.

Voices from the survey

What the room wants to set up together

Free-response asks for a self-organized 'Setupathon' — lightly edited and anonymized.

  • Hermes — maybe.

    — A diligence-focused emerging managerWants to learn

  • MCP servers wiring Claude into the VC stack — Affinity / Notion / Drive — so I can query deal flow, GP pipeline, and LP CRM live. Painful to configure alone, transformative once it works.

    — A LATAM emerging-manager GPWants to learn

  • Yes — all of the above, especially the moral support. We don’t use Claude or Chrome; we run on CoPilot and 365, and we don’t have Pitchbook / TechCrunch / other data subscriptions.

    — A Microsoft-stack seed fundWants to learn

  • Is there a recording or FAQ you’d recommend for a nanoclaw install? OpenClaw seems like overkill and not safe. And is there a recording of the last Setupathon?

Voices from the survey

What the room is curious to see live

Free-response answers to 'what would you like to learn more about or see a live example of?' — lightly edited.

  • There’s so much information about AI in VC that I don’t even know where to start (as a non-engineer / non-technical person).

    — A non-technical fund partnerWants to learn

  • The Anthropic / Goldman “forward-deployed engineer” model applied inside an emerging manager’s ops — what actually changes in a 2-person GP’s weekly workflow.

    — A LATAM emerging-manager GPWants to learn

  • Most of our research is phone calls with experts. I’d love to learn how to use this for diligence and portfolio tracking.

After the session

What this room said when the camera was off

5 attendees answered the post-session survey. Below: the numbers, the highlights, and the one piece of feedback we're acting on.

  • 9.6/ 10InsightfulMedian 10 · range 9-10 · n=5
  • 9.6/ 10Would recommend to other FellowsMedian 10 · range 9-10 · n=5
  • +100NPS5 promoters · 0 passives · 0 detractors

Highlights

  • "This group is amazing and going to save my life."

  • "Great session! Very practical. Amazing how Michael, Jules and Toby prepared a bunch of materials to share."

  • "Walked away with a couple new tools and tactics."

Getting better

We surface every piece of pointed feedback alongside the change it triggers. No defensive footnotes.

  • "Some of the conversation was over my head. Still good to be part of the conversation and be exposed."

    Our response:Signal for an explicit on-ramp / beginner track. Add a clearly-labeled "start here" thread and a non-technical glossary so newcomers can stay oriented when the room goes deep.
