Investment Model
-
We will typically invest in your early stage of development – we expect to be your first external capital, possibly with, or after, an Angel round.
-
We want you to have a minimum viable product and a small, but growing, customer list (Product / Customers / Revenue).
-
We will lead the seed round aiming to commit 50% of the capital required; we will match this with aligned co-investors.
-
This approach extends your runway and reduces the investment risk for us.
-
We tend to stagger our capital commitments over time, as you demonstrate traction.
-
We are ‘high-touch’ in the early years of your journey and will take up board representation.
-
We invest in ventures from our partners, & graduates from accelerator or incubator programs, as well as in independent startups.
-
We use our resource sharing agreements with our partners to secure deep domain expertise across many sectors. This is cost effective and delivers scale.
-
We will go long and deep in our top performing companies aiming to hold our stake through to exit.
