OUR PROCESS
Startup Review
We review incoming investment opportunities on a weekly basis and reach out to founders with our feedback.
First Call
We get on an intro call with the founders to understand the team, the business and the market to help us get closer to an investment decision. We also try to understand how we can add value beyond capital to the founders.
Internal Analysis
After the meeting, we conduct a discussion on crucial aspects of the founders and the business. If the team sees potential value, we request dataroom access for a detailed review of company documents.
Investment Decision
If there are no significant red flags, we are able to deploy capital within a matter of days.
