Let's say I wanted to start a hedge fund in 5 years. What would I need to do now to make sure I know the right people to be able to successfully raise money for this? How am I supposed to meet these people?

I talked to a director of investments at an endowment and he said that he needs a track record. I heard some people start with friends/family money and I know some funds start by offering a discount on management/carry fees if you invest for obvious reasons.
