E203: How Elite Endowments Invest w/John Felix

22 Aug 2025

Description

This episode features John Felix, General Partner & Head of Research at Pattern Ventures, a specialist fund-of-funds focused on backing small venture managers in the $5–50M range. We talk about the endowment principles that shaped John’s investing mindset, how to separate true specialists from résumé-driven narratives, why access and selection are two very different games, and the traps LPs face in co-investments. John also shares lessons on reserves strategy, portfolio construction, and what allocators consistently overlook when evaluating emerging managers.
