Why Fund I Returns Are Better and How to Keep That Edge

The numbers don't lie. Fund I managers consistently deliver stronger returns than their more established counterparts, and it's not luck. It's focus, conviction, and the kind of hunger that comes from having everything on the line. But that edge is fragile, and most managers don't know they're losing it until it's gone. In this session, we're breaking down exactly why Fund I returns outperform, what drives that advantage, and the specific moves emerging managers can make right now to protect it - whether you're mid-raise, approaching first close, or already deploying. This is the conversation you need to be in.
