@NealBloom @RyanCTJ @paigefinnn @CONNECTinSD That sounds awesome! Count me in

@saraledterman @Samirkaji Literally none of the big 4 will take emerging managers for firm + funds with AUM <$150M. “Too risky” for them.

JPM will only allow if you are a private wealth client with $5M.

BoA/Merrill is similar. Citi is a no go.

Big upside to partner with managers as they grow.

@emilyherrera Oooh that sounds fun! Yes please 🙋🏻‍♀️

@harshitagirase @a16z Yes!! Sending you a DM now…

@KylieBourjaily If any investor isn’t then they aren’t meeting their fiduciary responsibility: 2.5x greater returns + ~1 yr earlier exits.

Gender investment strategies didn’t really exist until 2015, to name a few..

@brickywhat @sri_varre Abhhh!!! I literally just left for a month in San Diego. Back at the end of May if you’re still around. Will DM you

@ALiS0NLAURA @JoeDesiderio @steviemctweets Literally. So sick of this shit.

My healthcare is not optional, so let’s stop investing and talking about it like it is.

@nikillinit Defaulting LPs will be an interesting trend to watch in 2023. Lots of activity on secondaries + opportunities to get into closed firms as an LP.

Usually there’s some pretty steep escalation outlined in the LPA on next steps (forfeit carry, pre-pay balance). Lots of legal fees..

[Abbie Strabala @straballar]

@KatyWellhousen Same here! The ROI just isn’t there. My only motivator is to do renovations I want, like bathroom or kitchen upgrades that don’t make sense when renting.

Could be solved with a long term lease like you see in some places with 99+ years

@JennieNwokoye @clafiya @BayerFoundation 🤞🤞🤞🤞

@PitchBook can you please add the total $ amount of VC funding you are using to calculate the % of funding to mixed gender and female founded teams to the dashboard?

I want to compare the $ vs. just the %.

@blakeaburge @oralucent ! Oral health + overall health impacts.

I have seen such a significant different in the color of my teeth, less bleeding when flossing and no
more bad breath by the afternoon.

+ my dentist no longer lectures me about my gums. Which is all ROI I really need.

@MoFromYYZ My god. Look at that density, what a dream come true. 😍

I bet more than 1 place in this world would be open for coffee at 10 pm

@TarlonKhoubyari And you can’t miss the hunky Jesus’s contest at Dolores this weekend!

It’s an Easter must! 🐇
