Before sending a Businessplan, please read our criteria section. The best possible way to get our attention is to be introduced by someone we know and respect.
Our process is really simple. First we assess attractiveness and plausibility of the business case. In the positive case, we evaluate in a team presentation the team itself, claims, opportunities and risks of the case. An investment requires unanimous consent among the partners.
The individual steps:
- Sourcing: We detect your start-up through pro-active sourcing efforts; or you found us to be a suitable potential investor
- Pre-screening: We check the documents against our criteria
- Evaluation: We get your pitch, visit you and analyse your deal proposal
- Negotiation: Together we work out a term sheet
- Due diligence: We re-check financials, legal, technology and team
- Closing: We sign investment agreement and wire the money
- Post: While we generally sit on the boards of the funded companies, most of our contribution comes between board meetings.
