What Lightspeed Venture Partners actually looks for

  • Strong wedge → expansion narrative; show me the Trojan-horse product move.

  • Cross-geo references — Lightspeed values founders who understand the global market not just US.

  • A defensible data or distribution moat at scale, not at seed.

How to format the deck for Lightspeed Venture Partners

  1. 1

    Include a "wedge → platform" slide that maps your beachhead product to the platform vision.

  2. 2

    For consumer pitches: a single "moment in life" slide showing exactly when the user reaches for you.

  3. 3

    Skip the standard "TAM-SAM-SOM" pyramid; do a bottoms-up market sizing instead.
