🙌 Nothing makes us more fulfilled than knowing our incredible GPs have found our program valuable
Fundraising as a first-time GP can feel daunting—especially when it comes to effectively sharing your vision with LPs. I’m grateful for Bridge Funding Global, which connects female and diverse GPs with LPs while fostering authentic community and support. Through Bridge, we gained investors and built meaningful relationships. The GP/LP 1:1 matching, panels, and workshops have been fantastic—and half of our fund’s portfolio companies are women-led, tackling issues like menopause, breast cancer, hormone tracking, and artificial wombs, demonstrating that diverse GPs empower diverse founders and topics. The Spring 2025 GP membership application is now open for Women & Diverse Emerging Managers (apply by 1/03): https://lnkd.in/eeRCK-jQ Thank you to Sophia Platt and Emna Ghariani for creating something so impactful. If you’re considering applying, DM me—I’m happy to share more about my experience! 🌟 pictures: me on a bridge in Vancouver, various LP and GP bridge dinners from this year --- Bridge Funding Global Bridge Funding Global is a data-driven fundraising membership platform and highly curated investor community for top-performing diverse emerging managers. The vision for the platform is to provide LP/GP relationship-building tools to women and underserved GPs, optimize their fundraising process, and match them with actively deploying LPs. Bridge provides very targeted yearly programming including an Annual conference with its unique GP/LP matching program, matching fall dinners, workshops, and more. Notable LPs: Pivotal Ventures (Melinda Gates Fund), Legacy Venture, Illumen Capital, Sapphire Ventures, Cendana Capital, Getty Museum Trust, Babson Endowment, Atento Capital, Hilton Foundation , George Kaiser Family Foundation, UCLA Endowmen, Columbia Endowment, Smithsonian Institution, Walton family office, and so many more. The Bridge Selection Committee of the US top institutional and family office investors will help select twenty additional GPs to become members, access the highly curated programming, meet aligned LPs, cultivate existing relationships, and learn from an incredible community. Selection Criteria: Diversity and Leadership: Funds led by individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those that are 30% or more women-led or led by people of color. Fundraising Stage: Funds at all stages of their financial journey, whether you are currently fundraising or considering future fundraising efforts. Geographic Focus: Primary, but not exclusive focus on U.S.-based funds The selection committee scores applications based on clarity of investment strategy and differentiation, evidence of research and understanding of the market, clear and standing out materials, and track record of success within target sectors. #venturecapital #fundraising
