What are your fees?
We charge a flat consulting fee to create and launch your own venture fund, which offers you a more economical option than building your own presence from the ground up. After fund closing, we charge a management fee to investors in the fund to help build and manage the fund’s portfolio of investments, and we share in the profits of successful company exits with you.

We share profits with you on successful deal exits, creating a new revenue stream for your organization.
