What's a syndicate vs fund?
A syndicate is a special purpose vehicle (SPV) created for the purpose of making one investment into a startup. Just like VC funds, Syndicates are lead by syndicate leads (sometimes referred to as General partners) and they are backed by many limited partners (LPs). The total number of LPs in any given syndicate can number from a handful to the many thousands.
