StrictlyVC at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025: The full LP track agenda revealed

TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 is set to make waves this October, as StrictlyVC returns to spotlight the key players influencing the venture capital scene. This year's focus is on one of the industry's most pressing issues: liquidity. With exit timelines extending and distributions slowing, understanding the shifting landscape is crucial for investors. In collaboration with Cendana Capital, known for its backing of over 80 funds in the past 15 years, a new off-the-record LP track will be introduced. This initiative aims to provide a transparent view of capital trends, evolving LP priorities, and essential insights for GPs looking to navigate these turbulent waters. If your work involves raising, deploying, or managing capital, this event is essential. Scheduled for October 28 at 3 p.m. at San Francisco’s Moscone West, the event will kick off with networking opportunities before the program begins. Attendance is exclusive to investor-pass holders, ensuring that every session is tailored to equip attendees with actionable strategies for today’s challenging fundraising landscape while fostering invaluable connections. Among the highlights is a session titled 'The Liquidity Reckoning: Navigating the New LP Landscape,' featuring industry leaders like Lara Banks from Makena Capital and Michael Kim of Cendana Capital. This discussion will delve into how the current liquidity crisis is reshaping LP-GP dynamics, fund pacing, and capital commitments, offering candid insights on where LPs are finding opportunities and where they’re pulling back. Another critical session, 'Inside the LP Selection Process: Differentiating in a Competitive Market,' will reveal how LPs are evaluating emerging managers in an increasingly selective environment. Panelists including Kelli Fontaine and Adam Grosher will share their expertise on building trust and distinguishing oneself in a crowded field. Additionally, Kevin Hartz of A* will provide a unique perspective on GP-LP relationships, highlighting the importance of managing expectations and aligning visions to foster long-term partnerships. The global high-tech sector is also in focus, with Dror Bin, CEO of the Israel Innovation Authority, discussing the transformative trends and challenges faced by venture capitalists today. This session will address how Israel continues to support innovative deep-tech founders even amidst global uncertainties.
