VamosVentures

If we want to see more diverse top companies like NVIDIA, we need to pave the way at the earliest stages—venture capital is that on-ramp. It was a pleasure to join Emerging Manager Office Hours hosted by Venture Forward earlier this week. Thank you to Rhianon Anderson and Maryam Haque for organizing such a value add event! A few (other) big takeaways to share: 👉 Distinguish the Curious from the Serious: Focus your time on LPs who are truly engaged. There are many LPs out there still excited about and committed to the VC asset class. 👉 Showcase Portfolio Performance: With liquidity tight, highlight KPIs, revenue growth, and the value your companies are building now to position for success when markets rebound. 👉 Clearly Differentiate: Provide concrete examples of how your approach stands out and drives unique outcomes, i.e., case studies. It was a pleasure connecting with friends and meeting inspiring next-gen GPs shaping the future of venture capital: William Crowder (Aperture® Venture Capital), Joshua Weed (Veteran Ventures Capital), Sonam Velani (Streetlife Ventures), Marcos Gonzalez (VamosVentures), Erica Duignan Minnihan (Reign Ventures), and Jenny Xiao (Leonis Capital). Here’s to collaboration, innovation, and creating lasting impact together.

I’m so excited to share that Nestment is featured in Architectural Digest/ The piece highlights three incredible Gen Z Nestment users who are rethinking homeownership and bought their first homes before turning 30 through co-buying.This is exactly why we started Nestment—homeownership should feel possible for everyone. Co-buying isn’t just a clever workaround; it’s a real, practical solution for people who’ve been priced out or felt stuck on their path to owning a home. A huge thank you to Architectural Digest and Madeline Bilis for shining a light on this movement and the role Nestment plays in helping people unlock new possibilities. Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/gh2i_inw Here’s to making homeownership a reality for more people, one step at a time. #Nestment #ArchitecturalDigest #CoBuying #GenZHomeOwnership #AffordableHousing #RealEstate #HomeBuying
