Not the usual transition question

Morning monkeys,

Wondering if anyone has experience with moving from a hedge fund to venture capital. It's a move I would be interested in, and I was just wondering if the skill sets were transferable, if it's a realistic move, etc.

Thank you in advance

What type of hedge fund strategy have you been doing? I'd argue you have a lot of similar skill sets from the job that got you into your HF (IB for example).
