Youngrok Kim is the Founding Partner of GREE LP Fund, a $170M bicultural fund-of-funds split between US and Japan vehicles, built on a contrarian timing thesis: Asia-Pacific's venture markets are at their 2010 moment, when cloud/mobile minted Andreessen Horowitz and Initialized Capital, and AI's platform shift will produce the next generation of iconic regional franchises.Structured as separate mandates rather than commingled capital, GREE LP commits to 20+ managers per fund at the sub-$50M threshold where collaborative check sizes eliminate brand competition. Portfolio spans established platforms (NFX, Future Ventures) and first-time GPs selected for strategy-fit over pedigree: former GitLab CMO doing DevTools seed, ex-Palantir operators with 150-person deal sourcing networks.Nine of ten deployed funds exceed median TVPI despite <3-year vintages. The platform allocates 10-15% to late-stage co-investments and LP secondaries as liquidity architecture, targeting first distributions within five years to smooth cash flow curves before primary exits mature.Learn more about Youngrok and GREE LP below:linkedin.com/in/youngrok-kim/GREE LP Fund
