Why the LP voice has been missing from venture capital conversations
“If you're writing about the industry or memes or trends or if an LP is writing, just finding a way to pull people together and amplify it.”
Because what we wanted to do was create an ecosystem that was invited everybody to play in and was would help be an amplifier to anyone who wanted to write from even GPs that write sort of I consider the an LPS perspective. If you're writing about the industry or memes or trends or if an LP is writing, just finding a way to pull people together and amplify it. So that was the whole genesis of it. It's super simple. It's a hashtag and a website, and we have a newsletter. And we've reached out to a bunch of LPs and said, if you write something, we'll retweet it. We'll post it. And folks have joined the conversation, and and that's great because I we do think that the LP voice is missing or has been missing.
