And if you&#39;ve tuned into her first episode on Superclusters, you&#39;ll know exactly why. Charlotte has been one of my favorite guests on the podcast, marrying both her profound ability for deep analysis with strong framework-oriented assessments. You might remember her 4 P&#39;s to underwriting every manager from our prior episode.</p><p>Naturally I had to have her back for an El Pack episode to answer your questions on how to build a venture capital fund. We bring on 3 GPs at VC funds to ask 3 different questions.</p><p>99VC&#39;s <strong>Lisa Yu</strong> asks about what LPs look for in Fund I&#39;s beyond track record.</p><p>Escape Velocity&#39;s <strong>Mahesh Ramakrishnan</strong> asks about recycling and what happens when you have 30% of your fund size as distributions in the first few years of the fund.</p><p>Founder Embassy&#39;s <strong>Helena Gagern</strong> asks about investing in AI frontier labs where the first round of financing already puts the company at $400M+ in valuation. And also, how do you communicate to LPs that you have an &quot;exceptionalism&quot; bucket to invest out of?</p><p>As the director of investments at Inatai Foundation, <strong>Charlotte Zhang</strong> oversees the selection of external investment managers, conducts portfolio research, and helps to institutionalize processes, tools, and resources.
