HOW WE ACHIEVE THESE NUMBERS:
Our four-part investment process
1. Top-notch due diligence
We mitigate any potential risks by combing through the details to determine where entrepreneurs are at in the following areas:
Legal Infrastructure
Talent Evaluation
Financial Structure
Market Size/Revenue
Growth Potential
…and More!
2. Coaching entrepreneurs
Our Entrepreneurs-in-Residence (EIRs) and advisors work with the person/team you are investing in to increase success at all phases.








3. Relationship-based collaboration
We value relationships with our investment partners and will work through the nuanced dynamics of co-investment with you to determine what’s a win-win for everyone.
4. Tapping into top deals early
Our extensive network and intentional programming aid in pinpointing the best deals in the state before investment has been made.
Venture Capital
We’ll help ensure you make the best investment possible, reduce risks, and capture potential deal flow at earlier stages through collaborating with our Entrepreneurs-in-Residence.
Angel Investor
Tap into our vast network of other angel investors, gain clarity on the process, and make deals with real numbers in mind through expert-level due diligence, not just gut feelings.
