John Burke - Trustee

John has been a founder of two of the most successful early stage funds in the US. In both cases, on many occasions we did not participate in our pro rata of the most promising companies for a variety of reasons. In the most extreme examples, when it was clear we had a tiger by the tail, we could just not write big enough checks. In other circumstances, we decided our marginal dollar was best invested across earlier stage bets – after all we were early stage investors and always looking to maximize risk as well as return for our LP’s. When the idea of PROOF came up, it was clear to me this was a way to help the entire early stage ecosystem.
