Does anyone know where I could find a list of FoF's or family offices that invest in VC Firms? I don't know if anything like this exists; so far I've just been scraping around company websites looking to see if they do indeed invest in VC firms. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.





Well I had to find something
Well I had to find something like this, it's not really easy online to look for something like that. Capital IQ type databases are easier, or anywhere where you can look at the specific VC target investment, i.e. cleantech, and finding FoF's that invest in that.

That sucks!!
Well, I had an assignment pretty much exactly the same as the one listed and you will find practically NO info online. The unfortunate part about these people that have money to invest is most of them don't want to be contacted because chances are, they already know people that will take their money.
With that said, there are some resources that people sell that listed a crap load of foundations and family offices and what they invest in and their investment criteria...but it cost a good bit of money. This is why business school is so important. After school you have a rolodex with plenty of names in it to call. Good luck.
