Kudos to Maren Bannon for gathering valuable information on leading LPs and 2025 VC trends! Here are some key highlights: "As cliché as it is, I am most looking forward to distributions to paid-in capital (DPI) in 2025... Certainty around the outcomes of the recent US presidential election should help with short-term DPI generation.” - Dominic Maier, Head of Fund Investing, AVP "We believe DPI will be king, given the paucity of liquidity over the last few years... Smaller funds have the potential to deliver DPI faster and benefit from exits in the middle of the curve.” - Albert Azout, Managing Partner, Level Ventures "2025 will be a golden vintage for seed VC managers and they’ll be doing it for all the right reasons... Gone are the short-term money grabs, the vanity VC funds and the hobbyists." - Adam Marchick, Partner, Akkadian Ventures Source: Forbes Disciplined investing will be a key differentiator in the LP ecosystem. By combining rigorous due diligence with a data-driven approach, LPs can make much more informed investment decisions. #VentureCapital #LPPredictions #2025Outlook #Forbes #LPs #Founders
