Event Sponsor: Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati
Many of us will have to raise our next fund in the next couple of years. For most of us, the venture world has changed dramatically since we raised our last fund. This is your chance to hear what the LP community is looking for, and find out how hard, or easy, raising your next fund will be.
Topics:
- What is the outlook for fundraising in 2006 and 2007? Is it likely to get easier or harder?
- Are preferences changing for sector focus? Stage focus? Fund size?
- What are the three key factors LPs look for in picking a fund?
- What is most important in the pitch? In the prospectus?
- What are the most common mistakes GPs make in trying to raise a fund?

Small Venture Fund Roundtable
The group is designed for partners and principals of venture capital funds that are under $100 million in their current funds. Given the changes in the venture landscape, it makes sense for those of us running small funds to collaborate, as the profile of investment opportunities more frequently calls for a syndicate of small funds.
