Venture Funds don’t Add Value. Venture Studios Do.

Yes, both act as investors, conducting due diligence and protecting capital.

Yes, both act as investors, conducting due diligence and protecting capital.

But Venture Studios also play two additional roles:

1. Co-founder & Entrepreneur

They don’t just fund companies they create them. This hands-on role helps de-risk early-stage startups by building them from the ground up.

2. Operator

Venture Studios actively manage these businesses, reducing risk and maximizing efficiency.

This approach leads to:

• Stronger early-stage risk mitigation
• Greater capital efficiency
• Founder-level equity (~30% or more, compared to ~10% for venture funds)

With concentrated focus and ownership, studios are uniquely positioned to prioritize opportunities that truly succeed.

Most studios are led by experienced GPs former founders or investors further amplifying their impact through networks and expertise.

Venture Studios don’t just invest; they build, own, and operate, driving unparalleled value for LPs.
