📖 Foreword

Hey there, my name is Pavel!

I'm the founder of Murph Capital. After ~7 years in VC (mostly in IR), I started a new media + community layer for the new generation of VCs and LPs.

Think something closer to TBPN / a16z New Media, but fully focused on capital allocators and VC fund builders. We've grown to ~15k across Substack, LinkedIn, and X, with regular viral reach.

We’re backed by Harmonic, Rings AI, and Cura, and we host private investor events with Sydecar and Rho.

You can find more information about us on our website or by checking my X or LinkedIn profile.

<aside> 🚨

I'm looking for a VC Research Lead who can turn raw data into sharp insights – someone who understands the venture ecosystem deeply, works fluently with statistics, and can co-author data-driven reports and essays that make our audience smarter.

Research & Analysis
