JUST IN: Murph Capital just released a pretty useful Fund-of-Funds market map for VC 👇 They manually mapped 132 active FoF managers backing venture funds globally. TL;DR 🔥 132 active Fund-of-Funds globally 🔥 Only ~33 are really focused on emerging managers 🔥 58% of all FoFs are based in the US 🔥 76% of EM-focused FoFs are American For emerging VCs, this matters a lot. Everyone talks about “institutional LPs” like there is this huge pool of capital waiting for new managers. But if you are a first-time fund, the actual addressable FoF market is much smaller. Especially outside the US, where “institutional LPs” often means: good luck, go talk to EIF (Europe..) haha. One part I liked: Pavel also points out how European venture starts compounding after big outcomes. ElevenLabs helped create Baobab Ventures. Credo Ventures closed an €86M fund after one of the biggest European venture outcomes in recent years. Great founders create great funds. -> Great funds back the next founders. Huge shoutout to Pavel Prata and Murph Capital 🧡 They are putting out some of the best content right now for emerging managers, LPs and the part of venture people usually don’t see. 📌 Save this post and share with other founders in your network!
