One dollar, three seats at the table. Join the LP who wrote the check, the GP who deployed it, and the founder who put it to work for a practical look at how capital actually moves in 2026. Featuring Jessica Kamada of Swizzle Ventures on what gets funded, what stalls, and where capital flows next.
Most conversations about venture capital only show you one link in the chain. This one shows you all three.
We're bringing together a limited partner, a general partner, and a founder to trace the same dollar end to end; from the allocator's diligence call, through a fund's deployment decisions, to what the money actually buys inside a company. 

Featuring Jessica Kamada, General Partner at Swizzle Ventures, who spent 12+ years as a growth operator before moving to the other side of the table.

Expect specifics, not platitudes. Where the three seats agree, and where they don't.

What you'll learn
  • How an allocator actually decides which emerging manager gets a first check — and what kills it
  • What a GP does in the 90 days after a close, and how deployment pace gets set
  • What venture money buys on the founder side that other capital can't
  • Where the LP, the GP, and the founder flatly disagree about value
  • Where capital is rotating next, and what that means for managers raising into 2027
