The Next Wave #27 - Strategic LP/GP Relationships - Creating the Win-Win | October 2024
This #webinar took place on October 9, 2024, and is part of #GCV’s #TheNextWave monthly series covering topics across the #CorporateVentureCapital landscape.
Historically, VC fund LP positions have been seen as a passive investment vehicle for corporations who lacked skills or did not seek to build out a dedicated investment program/ team. That is no longer the case.
GCV Keystone survey data shows that close to half of CVCs (47%) do invest in VC funds. And while some use LP positions as a ‘toe in the water’ for learning to make investments in startups, many now employ LP stakes in a more sophisticated way to:
• Expand into new geographies
• Access specialist sector expertise
• Draw insights from very early-stage startups via seed funds
But it takes two to tango – and some GP/ strategic LP relationships are more valuable than others.
In this webinar, a panel of VC fund managers will discuss:
Why should a corporation invest in VC funds?
Why should a VC fund include corporate ‘strategic’ vs passive ‘institutional’ LPs?
What criteria do GPs use to identify/source and evaluate potential corporate LPs?
What expectations do GPs have of corporate strategic LPs?
What sorts of programs do GPs have in place to ensure value is both derived from and delivered to corporate investors?
What to look for and what to watch out for in strategic LP agreements?
How do GPs measure the value and portfolio impact from having corporate LPs?
