Let’s go over the inner workings of a VC fund:

A venture fund is a fixed-pool of capital raised for investing per an agreed-upon investment strategy.

A venture firm manages this fund, and over time, can manage multiple funds.

General Partners (GPs) are the primary investment decision makers and are generally supported by a team of admin and investment professionals.

Limited Partners (LPs) provide the capital and agree to pay the GP a management fee each year and a share in a percentage of the profits.
