Launching today: LP Uncovered.

A series exploring the investors who back the best VCs—the Limited Partners and allocators who rarely get the spotlight but shape the entire venture ecosystem.

First up:

Sabrina Bainbridge from Spring Point Partners on using the "Whole Toolkit" to fix broken systems

Regina Green from Catalyze on "The Capital Before the Capital"

These are the people deciding which funds get capital, and as a result, which ideas get backed. 

I'll share more in the next two days. 

Until then, check out and subscribe to: LPUncovered.com
