An oversubscribed fund rarely starts with the biggest network in the room. More often, it starts with a narrow, carefully chosen group of LPs who already believe in the thesis. It also needs a process that keeps momentum building from the first commitment to the final close.
In this Meet the Managers session, VC Lab managers who closed their funds oversubscribed walk through exactly how they did it. They'll share how they chose which LPs to pursue first and how they turned early commitments into urgency for everyone else. They'll also get honest about what changed when demand started to outgrow the fund, and how they decided who got an allocation.
This is what fundraising looks like in the era of the agentic fund. Agents can now keep every prospect moving and benchmark your funnel against the rest of the cohort. That frees up more of your week for the conversations that actually create demand, which is exactly where these managers spent their time.
Whether you're working toward a first close or pushing past your target, you'll leave with tactics you can use in your next LP meeting. Registration is free. Reserve your spot and bring your questions for live Q&A.
