Advantage for Affiliated Investors
We are committed to providing our investor network with high return investment opportunities in thoroughly screened and assessed, well conceived and managed, technology-based startup companies with excellent growth potential.
Our portfolio companies represent high growth potential investment opportunities. As generally early-stage companies, the high growth potential is balanced in part by increased risk compared to typical investments. The careful screening process, technology assessment, and business planning that we employ minimize the inherent risk in these investments to the maximum extent possible.
The affiliated investor has the opportunity to spread his or her investment across multiple portfolio companies as part of a pool of affiliated investor money or to invest in one particular portfolio company. Affiliated investors may thus tailor their risk/reward strategy to match their individual preferences.
Business plans, white papers, presentations, and opportunities to meet with key personnel of technology companies are methods for affiliated investors to learn about investment opportunities in our portfolio companies.
A Virtual Incubation Affiliated Investor is an investor who has been qualified and accepted by VIC into its Affiliated Investor Program. Affiliated investors are provided access to information regarding our portfolio companies and early-stage investment opportunities with those companies. Individual investors must meet SEC requirements for accredited and sophisticated investors.
The minimum investment varies by portfolio company but typically ranges from $25,000 to $100,000.
