What are in your opinion the top dogmas in VC? I start with 5 (3 more in comments) 1 Bigger is better & correlation with fund success 2 VC firms only invest in large markets and avoid niches 3 VC do not invest in hardware 4 VC firms only chase "Winner-takes-most" 5 Founders should never insist for VC feedback

6 Prioritization of experienced founders over first-time entrepreneurs 7 Geographical proximity is crucial for successful investments 8 Unicorn or bust mentality These are 8 dogmas I've discussed recently with Fergal Mullen from Highland Europe.

Other dogmas: VC has performance consistency as an asset class (i.e. past performance is predictor of future performance), Your fund size IS your strategy, portfolio construction is necessary but not sufficient for a venture outcome, price discipline is less important in earlier stages

I would argue that bigger is not better. Lots of data about outperformance from smaller funds (that's why you see fund size discipline from T1s like Benchmark). Although LPs like big funds because they can create bigger cash on cash return (magnitude)
