Appearances
top tier, tier one, you know, sort of companies, including some of the ones that I listed in those like top five that have had rounds come together based off of a significant chunk of the round basically being done by an S P V.
Um why do you do it as a company?
Well at the end of the day, if you're like the CEO of a company, you're not going to be a good thing.
No, I'm not saying
you know, sort of venture investor.
Yeah, I mean I think it's you know.
A lot of funds, the way that they end up like, you know, sort of growing in AUM is, you know, they start off with an initial like fixed fund structure and then like, you know, for their best performing companies, do you co invest vehicles, you know, or like opportunity funds to build that up and then eventually become, you know, sort of, you know, multi stage and can actually like handle basically a growth fund once they've shown that some of those growth SPBs work.
So in some ways, I guess in some ways.
Yeah, so I guess in some
I'll uh pretend like this is, you know, hypothetical even if it's not hypothetical, but like imagine you're a company like OpenAI, you need to go raise like, you know, sort of billions of dollars, right?
Um uh
You as the CEO have a lot of things on your plate, right?
You need to like manage the government, you have customers, you have your internal team, et cetera.
Like, can you really afford to like literally fully, fully, fully only be focused on fundraising?
Like, no, it's like really hard to do that basically like as the CEO when you're operating the company.
Versus if somebody comes to you and is like, hey, let me do like a like, you know, basically like feeless, carryless, you know, basically SPV that, you know, lets me go out and raise.
It's effectively like in some ways like outsourced, you know, IR.
It's somebody that's working, you know, on this basically entirely full time.
And there's sort of a win-win on both sides.
As the CEO, you don't need to like, you know, you know, do all the sort of fundraising with the long tail of like sovereign wealth funds, this, that, and the other.
