@pitdesi a smaller fund (<$350M) is roughly 50% more likely to return more than 2.5x than a large fund (>$750M)

"Only 17% of venture funds larger than $750M have ever returned to limited partner investors more than 2.5x TVPI net of fees and expenses compared to 25% of funds smaller than $350M. Said differently, a smaller fund is roughly 50% more likely to return more than 2.5x than a large fund. An even larger performance gap exists when measured by cumulative IRR, which is 17.4% in funds smaller than $350M versus just 9.7% in funds larger than $750M." * via #SanteVentures @PitchBook * Calculated for all U.S. Venture Funds raised from 1990-2018. As of May 2023. Includes funds larger than $10M.

Bradley Tusk is leaving the traditional venture business. Tusk’s decision comes at a time of low distributions and notable reshuffling among VCs. Once the third fund ends in 2031, Tusk Venture Partners as it is now — a traditional venture firm — will cease to exist.
