Who they are
Emerging managers are venture fund managers early in their fund track record — typically Fund I, II, or III.
Many bring differentiated theses, networks, and access into markets and founders that larger firms underweight.
Why the category matters
Diligence on emerging managers is different from diligence on established firms — the track record is shorter and the conviction is built more on thesis and references.
