E2 • Jul 24, 2023 • 36 mins

David Weisburd sits down with Jordan Stein, Director of Venture Capital at Cresset Partners. a large multifamily office with over $45 billion in assets under management and a prolific limited partner and storied venture franchises, including Andreessen Horowitz, Lightspeed, and Founders Fund.

Key Points

  • Jordan Stein underscores the importance of access to top-tier venture capital firms, emphasizing that without it, the dispersion in returns makes investing in venture capital less worthwhile.
  • Evaluating emerging managers requires a thorough look at their edge in sourcing and winning deals, as well as referencing their track record and the value they add to portfolio companies.
  • First-time limited partners often make the mistake of being easily wooed by venture capital firms without conducting deep due diligence or understanding the broader venture capital ecosystem.
