Excited to see The Bridgespan Group leaning into the difficulty, messiness, and deep importance of understanding impact as a collaborative fund. There are no easy answers in this domain and we all (funders, funds, and grantees) need to get comfortable with the discomfort of not always being able to measure things as cleanly as we would like. At Liberation Ventures, we're co-creating a 10-year grantmaking strategy with movement leaders and weighing different ways to measure impact over that time. My favorite advice so far has been from Mark Kramer, who told us our most important metric should be the increasing momentum of the field. There are many ways to think about momentum - financial, social, political. What KPIs would you suggest? Who do you know that is doing this well? https://lnkd.in/ed7Vuynp

Creator turned angel LP at eu.vc 🌱 | Co-founder & pro babbler @ eu.vc - Europe's Venture Podcast & Community
Community is an investment focus. Why Common Magic stands by it. 1. Communities are powerful. Strong communities connect users, fostering loyalty and keeping them invested. They surface the best product insights, helping companies iterate and improve rapidly. They can become co-creators or even revenue generators for the platform. Communities accelerate the path to product-market fit by providing real-time user validation. 2. Communities are more resilient in downturns. They prioritize relationships across the ecosystem. They support a strong customer base and broader stakeholder support. It's not just a tactic, it's a philosophy of building with people, not just for them. This brings deeper loyalty and shared purpose. 3. Communities have a big impact on small funds. Sarah Drinkwater sees community-driven companies that others might miss. She empowers their portfolio companies to win with community strategies. Community is the future of business. Let's build it together! #VentureCapital #StartupFunding #Fundraising #Europe #diversity

“I wasted so much time pitching angel groups - so I wish I knew this sooner.” I really appreciate Amanda Schnetzer’s transparency in her fundraising process. As a mom to a son with ADHD, she took matters into her own hands to build support & resources for families with young kids. A big lesson she learned while raising is that angels, VCs & angel groups - are not the same. 👉 Nor does the term “early stage” mean the same to them. Investors usually have a “thesis”, meaning they focus on a particular: ✅ industry ✅ stage of founder (from pre-rev to particular growth metrics) ✅ initiatives such as sustainability ✅ region or geography ✅ background - such as a serial entrepreneur or successfully exited founder ✅ even gender or race for supporting historically underrepresented & undercapitalized groups It’s easy to get caught up in pitching someone or a particular group if they have the title of “investor.” BUT most investors publicly share their thesis on their profiles and/or website. 🙌 Before spending time on mass outreach and trying to get a ton of calls, be sure to ask if they even invest at the particular stage and/or industry etc. before bothering to book a call. It sounds simple, but we see founders waste HOURS talking to the wrong investors.😅
