E180: How J.P. Morgan Asset Management Picks Winners in VC & Private Equity

What does it take to allocate billions in private markets—and what sets a top-tier LP apart? In this episode, I speak with Patrick Miller, Executive Director and Portfolio Manager of J.P. Morgan Asset Management’s Private Equity Group, where he plays a central role in their alternatives platform, investing across venture capital and private equity. Patrick shares how a single energizing meeting with a Florida-based venture capitalist sparked his interest in the asset class and how his team has since built a differentiated barbell strategy combining legacy tier-one firms and new emerging managers. We dive into what LPs can do to truly add value to GPs, why fund size and ownership matter, how AI is shifting capital dynamics, and what makes a venture firm truly “differentiated.” Whether you're a founder, a new VC, or an allocator, this episode is full of real LP insights from one of the most thoughtful voices in the game.
