FAQs
What is an Venture Investor?
Venture investors are wealthy individuals who invest in high risk, early stage ventures by reserving a portion of their total investment portfolios to provide emerging companies with seed and startup capital through direct, private investments. Their goal is to achieve higher returns than the typical public markets provide. Most ventures are active investors - who contribute their time and experience, as well as offer introductions to valuable contacts essential to the company’s success - because they enjoy the thrill of helping entrepreneurs grow their businesses. To maximize the value added, most angels specialize in industries or technologies they understand, and invest only in companies within close geographic proximity.
What is a seed stage Venture Fund?
It is private equity capital organized into a fund to provide seed funding to early-stage, high-potential, growth companies (startup companies) or more often it is after the seed funding round as a growth funding round (also referred to as series A round).
