Akkadian adds two Partners + VP of RAISE Global Platform As we continue to expand our capabilities and solidify our position for future growth, we are thrilled to introduce three talented professionals who have recently joined our team: Adam Marchick, Angela Stanley and Scott Dubin. Adam Marchick joined as a Partner to lead efforts to expand our platform with a series of strategies that will leverage the extensive emerging manager community we have fostered through RAISE Global. The inaugural strategy will provide our Limited Partners with bespoke access to a select group of seed-stage AI-native managers from key entrepreneurial ecosystems. Angela Stanley joined as a Partner to lead our investor relations & fundraising efforts across the platform. Angela has a long history with the Akkadian team, having assisted the firm in raising Funds IV and V. Angela brings more than 20 years of leadership, advisory and fundraising experience. She is the first investor relations professional in the history of the firm. Scott Dubin joined as our new Vice President of the RAISE Global platform. In his new role, Scott will spearhead the growth and expansion of the platform, including the RAISE Global Summit, which for the last eight years has brought together nearly 500 limited and general partner leaders every October in the Presidio. Each of these individuals brings a wealth of experience and expertise that will undoubtedly enhance our ability to identify, nurture, and grow the next generation of transformative companies. About Akkadian: Founded in 2009, Akkadian is a multi-strategy venture firm based in San Francisco with $750M+ AUM. We closed our sixth growth-stage venture secondaries fund in 2022 with approximately $300M in capital commitments, exceeding our target of $175M. #growthstagevc #secondaries #venturecapital #raiseconference #emergingmanagers

Managing Director, Private Institutional Client Advisor | Taking an institutional approach, to generate sophisticated and differentiated investment and capital markets-based solutions.
Welcome to the first edition of Founders, Funders, and Effective Voices of those who positively impact Family Office Operations and Investments. We are delighted to have Ronald Diamond as our inaugural guest contributor. Ron is the most respected voice in this space. Because – as a family office leader and client said to me this morning – "he is a good man". Ron is a longtime investor and entrepreneur he is the Founder and Chairman of Diamond Wealth. He invests alongside 100 Family Offices ranging in size from $250 million to $30 billion. Diamond Wealth invests in private markets (private equity, venture capital, real estate). In addition, Diamond Wealth has divisions that focus on philanthropy, wealth transfer, investment banking, social impact, and governance. We are pleased to share this YouTube video, How $1 Billion + Family Offices Generate Alpha in Venture Capital, in which Ron tackles, with his guest David Weisburd, the issue of "The #1 Way Family Offices Can Avoid Adverse Selection" in private equity. For those not familiar with David, he is the Co-Founder of 10X Capital and Co-Host of the 10X Capital Podcast. He is a Venture Capitalist who has raised over $2B+ in institutional capital. Alongside being a venture capitalist, David is passionate about connecting Limited Partners (Endowments, Pension Funds, and Family Offices) with General Partners. David holds an MBA from The Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth and a Masters in Psychology from Harvard University. Of his many virtues, his friends, family, and colleagues admire David for his generosity. We hope that the incisive way they approach this subject and their insights are ones that Chief Investment Officers will recognize and act upon with their most pressing problems at heart. Additionally, these gentlemen provide insights CIOs can leverage right away on: How Family Offices May Disrupt Private Equity Venture Capital vs. Private Equity Balancing the "AUM GAME" We're glad you're here and we'd welcome your suggestions for anyone you deem qualified to be a contributor to our weekly Founders, Funders, and Effective Voices of those that positively influence the shaping of Family Office Operations and Investments. Let's learn and grow together in this exciting journey of investment leadership! #familyoffice #familyoffices #alpha #seekingalpha #cios

We are proud to announce that our Founder/Managing Partner, Lorine Pendleton, was selected by PEI and Venture Capital Journal as one of their Women of Influence in 2024 for Private Markets in the Venture Capital Category! She was selected as one of 42 women out of 500 nominations and one of only seven women in venture capital. This list includes some of the most successful women in the private fund markets. Lorine Pendleton never set out to become a venture capitalist. As a lawyer and business development exec, she stumbled upon an interesting fact 11 years ago – that less than 1% of venture capital went to Black founders, and only 2% went to women founders. When she heard that stat, she decided to change things. Her investment journey started with Pipeline Angels, where she learned how to invest as an angel investor, then Portfolia, where I launched two high-performing funds, Rising America I and II, investing in 30 companies with four excellent Black and Latina women partners, and now this fund 125 Ventures, investing in the future of sports (with a particular focus on women’s sports), media, and entertainment. Also, her role as a Chair at TIGER 21, she is fortunate to learn from some of the world's most successful fund managers and entrepreneurs. I’m working to change the world one investment at a time. https://lnkd.in/eEPWBHj9 Thank you, PEI and VCJ, for recognizing her work. #PEI #VentureCapitalJournal #WomenofInfluence #VC #WomenInvestors #ChangeAgent #RepresentationMatters

As we reach the end of the first month of 2024 (finally), we've been reflecting on the incredible achievements of our clients in the last 12 months and the support we've been able to provide, across a number of deals (172 to be precise) in a variety of sectors. Take a look at our 2023 Fundraising Report for all the key facts and figures from a year where macro economic factors played a big part in creating a challenging climate for VC activity. 2024 doesn't promise to be any more stable but we are hopeful of a brighter outlook enabling us to continue as one of the most active venture capital deal teams in the UK. #mishcon #mishconfuture #venturecapital #vc #vcfunding

It’s been 5 years since we launched Team8’s first VC fund, and now we’re doubling down on the Israeli ecosystem with our second $235M fund. Why now? Because every day, we witness the unparalleled innovation emerging from Israel. Raising this fund amidst current complexities is a loud vote of confidence from leading global investors in the Israeli tech ecosystem. And it's even sweeter with the recent acquisitions of our portfolio companies Talon ($625M) and Dig Security ($315M). More about how we plan to deploy Team8’s innovative model in our next batch of investments, in my recent blog post: https://lnkd.in/dEApSJH8 Liran Grinberg | Hadar Siterman Norris I Asaf Charnilas I Ori Barzilay I Tzlil Grebler Sela I Sharon Shmueli I Ahinoam Tessler

I was so busy yesterday with F Partners and Fox Ventures engagements that I didn’t have time to post the latest edition of our newsletter to LinkedIn! If you want it in real time, subscribe here: https://lnkd.in/ebHbSFFE This week’s edition was brought to you by our friends at Landscape Their product Compass is an all-in-one platform helping 40+ leading global venture funds to become data-driven.

This week we focused on relationship building and how important it is for family offices. This is important no matter their investment mandate, whether its direct, funds or fund of funds.
