Investment Process Timeline
Investment Criteria Entrepreneurs seeking investment undergo a pre-screening process where we assess several key criteria to determine if the business aligns with our investment strategy. This process enables us to filter out less promising opportunities and concentrate on those with the highest potential for success.
We consider key criteria when evaluating investment opportunities, especially when seed rounds are over, the company is generating revenue, and a lead investor is on board. Understanding these criteria can help you position your business more effectively.
Growth Potential
We look for evidence that your company can scale effectively. This means having a clear growth strategy and demonstrating strong capabilities in acquiring and retaining customers. Solid market penetration and a deep understanding of your competitive landscape are crucial.
Revenue-Generating
Consistent and growing revenue streams strongly indicate market demand and a viable business model. We focus on key financial metrics like Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR), Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), Lifetime Value (LTV), and profit margins to assess your business’s health and long-term sustainability.
Lead Investor
Having a reputable lead investor brings significant credibility to the investment round. Their involvement can attract additional investors and validate your startup’s potential. Moreover, lead investors provide invaluable strategic support, mentorship, and industry connections, which can drive your startup’s growth and success.
By meeting these criteria, you can showcase your startup’s potential for continued growth and profitability, ensuring that our investment aligns with your and our goals. We’re excited to explore the possibilities and help you achieve your vision.

Due Diligence & Investment Finalization
We identify and nurture early-stage businesses through a thorough due diligence process. This begins with assessing the business model, market potential, and team background. Next, we conduct a financial review, evaluating the company’s health through its statements and forecasts. We then perform a market analysis, examining the competitive landscape and growth potential while ensuring legal compliance. Our technology evaluation assesses innovation and feasibility. We also review the management team’s vision and strategy. Finally, we conduct a risk assessment, identifying potential challenges and developing mitigation strategies. Our comprehensive review enables us to make informed investment decisions and support the growth of early-stage companies.
