Cofounder/Investor Survey

Is your investment in danger?

A Harvard study shows that 65% of business partnerships dissolve due to conflicts among founders. This poses a risk not only to the founders but also to investors and VCs. We believe that investors who support the well-being of cofounder relationships provide a unique advantage to the Limited Partners (LPs) who trust their firm, distinguishing themselves from other VCs.

Please take a moment to help us better understand how you and your firm navigate the cofounder partnerships within your organization.
