In my opinion - A startup may take 8-15 years (or more) from start to reach a respectable scale and a valuation which makes sense for a VC investor in term of returns. Compounding plays a major role in wealth creation journey of a startup. So, any VC investor needs to find ways to maintain exposure to the company over a 8-15 year horizon (or more). A way to do it is to have parallel staggered funds which invest at different stages and managed by different teams (with different expertise of investing at different stages) under the same VC umbrella firm. Your views, Professor?
Logic is spot on - yet Funds are styll being raised for a 10 +1 + 1 period ..... so follow on investments are usually limited to 10- 20% of funds raised. Nevertheless - check out the discussions around 'Continuation Funds' - so some have started to raise them - yet as distinct vehicles with a different group of LPs .
