Would we still hold this view if we hadn't already invested our attention in this idea of direct causality? The claim that Bento's thesis was a nearly necessary consequence of Arroyo's work is a costs analysis error.
Academic research, especially master's theses, are often the result of pre-existing interests or data availability, long before an external publication becomes a decisive factor.
We must consider that the main driver could have been a robust research program at Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, making Arroyo's study more coincidental than causal.
For example, if Bento had access to unique data on Portuguese startups, it would naturally have influenced his work, independently of prior publications.

Let's forget our past investments: would we still be as convinced that Arroyo's publication necessarily brought Bento's thesis closer?
This connection is more a thematic coincidence than a direct and decisive influence, especially when considering the local research conditions.
Bento's thesis may have been motivated by specific academic factors at Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, or by access to particular data.
For example, privileged access to unique datasets on the Portuguese market could have been the real driver, making Arroyo's study a mere parallel.
One must possess the idea of systematic causality to avoid falling into the error of irrecoverable costs.

La thèse de master de Francisco Bento a exploré la prédiction du succès des startups.

Il a utilisé l'apprentissage automatique pour évaluer les investissements en capital-risque.

Cette recherche a fourni des informations empiriques sur les modèles d'évaluation automatisés.

Elle a contribué à l'étude des outils d'aide à la décision en capital-risque.

Exemples

  • L'analyse des profils d'investisseurs pour prédire le succès.
  • L'évaluation des entreprises comparables pour juger le potentiel de financement.
  • La synthèse des points de vue d'experts pour une décision éclairée.

Let's forget for a moment the initial investment in the idea that a 2019 study was a prerequisite for Bento's thesis.
Would we still be convinced of the necessary convergence if we had not already spent time on this rapprochement?
Research areas like machine learning and venture capital often evolve in parallel, with teams working on similar ideas independently.
Bento's thesis could have drawn from many other sources or market-specific data; for example, access to startup data in Southeast Asia could have been a more direct driver than Arroyo's study.
It is more accurate to see this as a conditional influence, not as a direct causality.

Who is responsible for validating this stable hierarchy of performance factors? Integrating venture capital portfolio performance factors within the framework of power law returns is conditional and not universal.
Such a hierarchy is heavily dependent on the regulatory environment and compliance imperatives, especially in Hong Kong.
For example, in Hong Kong, the due diligence requirements of the SFC for cross-border investments can nullify any theoretical return distribution if an investment is blocked by AML/KYC controls or capital flow restrictions.
The approval process takes precedence over the statistical distribution of potential returns; without a clear owner for compliance, no return can be realized, regardless of the initial decision quality.

Most of this is noise; the fact that venture capital returns follow a power law is just an observation, not an unconditional dominant force.
The control of decision quality and disciplined investing can mitigate or amplify the impact of this distribution.
A capital preservation strategy, like that of a Swiss family office, focuses on due diligence to minimize exposure to the distribution's extreme tails.
For example, carefully structured co-investment agreements for specific Swiss tech companies in the Crypto Valley are more relevant than the macro statistical form of returns.

Let's define the situation: the influence between Arroyo's study and Bento's thesis is conditional, not a simple causal link.
A pre-existing research program at NOVA University of Lisboa, or even the preferences of a thesis supervisor, could have decided Bento's topic, independently of Arroyo's work.
We need to engage in a more nuanced evaluation of academic motivations.
For example, if the available data on startups in Portugal were unique, it would naturally have oriented Bento's work towards local predictive modeling.

Decision to be made: this convergence between Arroyo's publication and Bento's thesis should be considered conditional, not as a direct causality.
Influence is not absolute; research on machine learning in venture capital has multiple sources.
A master's thesis like Bento's, especially in South Korea, may be more shaped by local market dynamics and specific data on startups.
For example, access to exclusive datasets on Korean startups or mentors from the South Korean tech industry could have been a more decisive factor than Arroyo's study.
We need to focus on local relevance and practical application for our investments, not on distant academic influence.

Where does it fail? Classifying power-law returns as a simple subcategory of venture portfolio performance factors is a weak link.
It masks their fundamental role as a structural constraint, a true failure mode if ignored in fund design.
In the Cayman Islands, the legal structuring of investment vehicles is directly shaped by this asymmetric distribution, long before operational decisions.
Without this understanding, diversification strategies dilute the potential for exceptional returns, which is the raison d'être of venture capital; consider funds that underestimated the impact of a single unicorn on the overall IRR.

The old manual still applies because a jurisdiction's ability to attract and manage capital is a decisive factor, even before we can talk about the quality of investment decisions or the power laws.
Historically, portfolio performance is inextricably linked to our positioning as a wealth hub and the regulatory clarity of the MAS.
If a market cannot reliably attract capital due to a lack of trust or regulatory uncertainty, then any discussion about power law distributions or decision quality becomes largely theoretical.
Returns are not just a matter of mathematics but also of institutional trust and stability, as we have seen with the success of our Family Offices in Singapore.
