Pt.2 Chris Douvos of Ahoy Capital on the evolution of the emerging managers segment
Manage episode 411710688 series 3525064
Part 2 of our conversation with Chris Douvos, on how the Emerging Managers segment in Venture Capital has evolved since 2010.
Chris Douvos founded Ahoy Capital in 2018, focusing on backing emerging venture capital fund managers. With nearly two decades in venture capital, he's a pioneer in the micro-VC movement.
At Ahoy Capital, the focus is on intentionally right-sized investment vehicles, believing that size can hinder performance. They prioritize concentrated portfolios, anchored by top-performing VC managers, alongside dynamic emerging managers and co-investments.
With experience catalyzing leading managers since the early micro-VC days, Ahoy pursues a conviction-based strategy, backing dynamic nascent managers and companies with sustainable competitive advantages or leveraging innovation ecosystems.
