Two weeks ago, I was in New York for the Venture Intelligence day (organised by Vestberry) moderating a panel with some pretty savvy VCs — among them Left Lane Capital a spinoff from Insight Partners with $2B AuM, Galaxy Ventures with $1.5B AuM, and Angelini Ventures with $300M AuM.

The topic? Platform 2.0 — how VCs are going beyond capital to actually support founders.

We talked talent, playbooks, community, business development, growth — and what it really means to be ‘value-add’ in 2025.

This episode is the result of that trip. A deep dive into how the smartest firms are supercharging portfolio support — and what the future of venture capital looks like.
