Moving from GP to LP

Looking for tips on moving from the GP to LP side.

I will have control over about $500M in LP capital that I will need to put to work near term. I’m a newbie to the LP side; but have many contacts on the GP side.

For those on the LP side, or those who have made the jump from GP to LP, what are some tips for making the move? How can I quickly scale? What should I look out for? Which conferences/networking groups should I attend/be involved with.

All advice appreciated!

 

The move should be very easy for you coming from the GP side. ILPA is the primary LP organization.
