Memes and mimeticism; reflections on venture capital one year in One year into her journey as a full-time VC. Sarah Drinkwater shares her candid reflections on: 🔹 The power of the founder/investor relationship 🔹 The importance of a clear value proposition 🔹 The rise of memes in VC culture 🔹 Balancing mimeticism and independent thought "True venture capital is meant to be about the risk of the new; finding and funding hard things, weird things, things that are not yet consensus." But how do emerging VCs navigate between originality and the need for follow-on investment? Sarah's take: "Lean into who you are and don't try to be someone you're not." For a refreshing, honest look at the challenges and opportunities in modern VC, check out the full article on EUVC Insights! 🔽 https://buff.ly/3AREW9W #venturecapital #startupfunding #Europe #EUVCInsights

Four pieces of advice for VCs fundraising, from Christian Dorffer - Founder and General Partner of Defiance Capital. 📌 There are too many funds, and capital is spread too thinly. This means emerging managers must develop a compelling strategy (focus, differentiation, portfolio construction) that works even with less AUM. 📌 Your strategy must make you highly competitive to ensure you can win deals. Specialised funds are much more likely to get a share of the best deals, as they can make better picks and add value. 📌 Execute like you already raised your fund. Be in the market, find ways to warehouse deals, put your point of view out, demonstrate how you add value to founders, and create LP FOMO. To succeed, you need to make it happen every day.

What LPs AND GPs Want From Quarterly Updates by Benedikt Langer, General Manager at The Sutton Firm. 👇 Why it matters.👇 Quarterly updates are essential but often miss the mark for both LPs and GPs. LPs seek more detailed insights—metrics like ARR and revenue growth—beyond just the basics like FMV and invested capital. The lack of direct feedback means EMs could be out of sync with what LPs value most, which might influence their future investment decisions. By refining quarterly updates to align with LP expectations, EMs can strengthen relationships and stand out in a crowded market.
