Project Definition:
A project is a group of files and folders.
Difference from a Folder:
The distinction between a project and a folder lies in the fact that the same files and folders can appear in multiple projects.
Uses of Projects:
To group all files/folders associated with an ongoing deal.
To compile all call notes you’ve had with buyers.
To organize all the most recent pitch decks from your portfolio companies, etc.
Suppose you want to review multiple company pitch decks simultaneously; you can group these into one project for easy access. Similarly, if you want to examine a company's Virtual Data Room (VDR), you can place the VDR into a different project. The advantage of projects is that they allow for the same document, like a pitch deck, to be included in multiple projects, such as both the pitch deck and VDR projects.
