You are not asked to fill in another profile. The network is computed from records you already keep — your verified alumni status plus your investor or founder profile. This page is public; the directory itself is members-only, because it lists real people.

See the shape of the network before you search it.
Nothing here is a listing you create. You appear because your alumni status is verified and you already keep an investor or founder profile — and you appear only while that profile is active.
This network makes it addressable. It reads your verified alumni record together with your investor or founder profile and shows the overlap, so a founder can see who from their own institute actually invests, and an investor can see who from theirs is building.
Shared-institute connections exist but are unaddressable. This makes them searchable.
A shared college is a real starting point, and both sides can see it before the first message.
Investor profiles carry a firm, a sub-type and a stated thesis rather than a self-declared label.
