[Webinar Recording] Best Practices for Portfolio Monitoring & Reporting With Gale Wilkinson
As more capital flows into venture as an asset class, investors increasingly compete for LP dollars and space on the cap table from the best founders they work with. Gone are the days when capital is enough of a differentiator for a VC fund to get on a hot startup’s cap table.
Considering the average VC + Founder relationship is 8-10 years (longer than the average marriage in the US) — founders are beginning to look for a true partner out of a VC fund. For a VC fund or emerging fund manager to stand out among other funds, they need to have the optimal data and systems in place.
Gale Wilkinson, Managing Partner and Founder of Vitalize Ventures, has led investments in over 70 companies and deployed $50M+ of capital. During her time at Vitalize and Irish Angels, Gale has turned into a leader in the space as emerging managers and founders turn to her for advice on all aspects of fund and startup building.
Gale joined us on February 15, 2022 to discuss how and why VC funds should build a system to track and monitor their portfolio companies.
Topics discussed during the webinar include:
- The history and founding of Vitalize Ventures
- The resources, network, communities, that has Gale has leveraged as she grows her managing partner skillset
- How she put together the Vitalize tech stack
- What metrics and data she collects from portfolio companies
- How she reports portfolio performance to her LPs
