EUVC Fund Canvas
Free
A practical framework for emerging managers to clarify and connect the core building blocks of their fund strategy before taking it to market, with a fillable PDF, editable Slides version and complete guide.
About the EUVC Fund Canvas: Map your fund strategy on one page
Building a fund requires more than a compelling thesis. Your team, edge, portfolio model, LP proposition and operations must support the same strategy.
The EUVC Fund Canvas is a practical tool to structure, align and communicate your fund strategy. It brings the core decisions into one connected view so you can make assumptions visible, identify contradictions and clarify where further work is needed.
The Canvas does not replace a detailed fund model, comprehensive checklist, legal work or fundraising materials. Use it to strengthen the thinking that informs those materials before taking your strategy to market.
