Frequently asked questions

I have other LPs in my network which would be a great addition, what do I do?

We would love to hear from them! Please ask them to fill out the form at the top of this page by clicking on the "Join Deploy Demo Day" button.

What format does the event take?

In-person event in London inviting world-class LPs alongside 15 exceptional GPs for a half-day of pitching and networking. All pitches are released online that same day to our entire LP network to request introductions.

Do you charge me to take part?

Focal is not a placement agent or broker. It’s free to both apply and attend.

How do you seed the network of Limited Partners?

We look for evidence of a sophisticated limited partner, not just net asset value. Having said that, we look for a minimum commitment to venture of £500,000 in the past 5 years and/or evidence of dedicated teams and capital.

How do I request introductions to the funds?

We give you all the necessary quantitative and qualitative data points you would need to make an informed decision. You'll be prompted to request intros on demo day itself and in the run up to it.

How does the fund selection process work?

We pick a combination of the most promising established and emerging funds. Partner LPs also have access to all our GP applicants, giving you an unparalleled GP dataset.
