### First Close: From Managing SPV’s to Launching a Fund

It’s common for fund managers to start their journey with SPVs, but the transition can be daunting.

That’s why we brought together investors who have been —and are—going through the journey to help you master SPVs and leverage them to start your first fund. Watch the recording to make the transition with confidence!

We covered:

- Technical operations of running a SPV
- Managing your LPs
- Progressing from SPVs to a fund
