Sutton Capital

LP's and Comedy!!! Have you ever heard those 2 words in the same sentence? I am looking forward to welcome the Emcee for the Sutton Capital Allocator Summit Ben Freeberg who's the GP at Oncology Ventures on November 14th 2024 in Times Square. But fun fact, he's also an NYC Comedian. He'll be guiding us through the programming, and will kick things off by warming up the crowd with a little VC based humor. I look forward the hott topics he'll bring up! Request an invite here: https://lnkd.in/ehrmWX9H special thanks to Withum and Brown Rudnick LLP for sponsoring

LP RETREAT 🌴⛰️🍇Had an amazing time hosting a large group of curated single family offices and institutional LPs from all over the world come in to San Francisco. We called this the “NAPA LP Retreat”. We all met at the Presidio in San Francisco and took a shuttle to a private Vineyard. We shared our thoughts intimately on the venture market and here’s a few takeaways -Many single family offices have a multi asset strategy; that means along with venture, they have family businesses & holding companies that also need support. That’s where private equity & buyout come into play to expand growth across the holdings -Liquidity is going to be a constant issue when venture is an illiquid market especially with such long hold times, so we’ll see opportunities for secondaries , M&A transactions, and strategic roll ups -When it comes to ai, managers are focusing on more granular subsets like ai copilots , or dev tools that support workflows that are 2-3 levels deeper in ai technologies -Managers need to be thoughtful when they think of their reserves strategy for follow-on capital. More concentrated approaches have a higher reserve strategy to ensure there’s enough to double down on winners Special thanks to Citizens Private Bank, Revere, EVCA, & Elevation Securities 🚀

There will be alot of great breakfasts and dinners next week. Excited to host a NAPA LP Retreat! We're proud to say that we have an oversubscribed group of family offices and institutional LPs taking a shuttle together to NAPA and bonding all day... all while still getting shuttled back to SF safely for dinner! See you there!

It's not about what you say about your fund, it's what LPs say about your fund. The way that you share your story, your mission, how it looks... makes people feel a certain way. We had one of our alumni Shayna Harris who's also one of the Sutton Capital fund accelerator alums also share her insights on what it takes to build a trusted and durable brand.

What I learned from a close friend who is old school.... who is the gatekeeper to the largest community of billionaire single family offices is 2 things. (1) Invite each person individually and thoughtfully. It takes much longer than an email blast but your actions and authentic intention means everything. (2) Send them a handwritten thank you card. Most principles at an SFO are still old school and you're most likely the only person left who could actually take the time out to do this, and it gets noticed...significantly

This is going to be epic! Join us in Time Square for the ALLOCATOR SUMMIT.... 40+ funds graduating in COHORT 9 going up Fund 5 and the top ones will present their insights alongside panels of Institutional LPs. Request an invite to the Sutton Capital ALLOCATOR SUMMIT! https://lnkd.in/eXG3TJAs
