Emerging Managers are often underserved and overlooked in the VC industry. However, the success of Emerging Fund Managers is widely considered the most promising way to improve the future of VC in terms of increasing returns, fueling innovation, and improving diversity.

Visible invited Recast Capital to deliver content on fundraising best practices for Emerging Fund Managers looking to raise their first, second, or third fund.

Sara Zulkosky has experienced every facet of Venture Capital from deal sourcing and managing investments, working as an LP at Greenspring Associates, graduating from the Kauffman Fellow program, and most recently co-founding and managing Recast Capital — a 100% women-owned platform investing in and supporting emerging managers in venture.

Sara walked us through fundraising best practices for Emerging Fund Managers and answered key questions like:

  • How to find Limited Partners
  • How to keep track of and nurture relationships with LPs
  • Which questions to ask LPs during a first meeting
