We build partnerships with talented entrepreneurs, helping them execute their business models. These partnerships are not just limited to equity financing; we can offer all the resources of our team, partners, and investors to turn the ideas of our entrepreneur partners into market-leading companies.

In addition to providing equity financing, we can offer founders the following help in building their businesses:

• Bring in professional knowledge and specialized expertise from around the world
• Generate new business opportunities by using our access to various global networks of entrepreneurs and executives in the United States, Europe, and Asia Pacific
• Help structure domestic and international strategic partnerships
• Help our portfolio companies raise follow-on financing using our extensive global network of technology investors
• Use our experience and relationships to organize a successful exit

We are looking to invest in startups which meet all or most of the following criteria:

• The business addresses a large multi-billion-dollar total addressable market. This may mean addressing a large existing market or a market which will likely become large in the next 10 years. It is ok to start with a smaller market segment if there is a credible strategy to expand
• The business has raised Seed or Series A funding but has not yet raised Series B (we can invest in priced rounds, SAFE and convertible notes)
• The business is primarily focused on serving the United States market
• The business has actual or potential network effects in its business model. We believe that network effects create strong barriers to entry for competition in technology companies
