So this is like the sources of our LPs, where they came from. 34.7% came from Twitter. 16.5% of them came from another LP introducing us. 5.8% came from another investor introducing us. 2.5% came from WorkWest, where I worked days and then I did investing nights and weekends for my first year out of college. 9.1% came from cold outreach, 2.5% came from LinkedIn, 5.8% was like existing friends, and then 3.3% was events that I attended. 6.6% was from the syndicate that I led previous to the fund. 2.5% were either founders that we had invested in or an introduction through a founder. 2.5% came from Seed to Harvest, podcast, which is sick. And then other was 7.4, and then Transat Global is 0.8.
