Early-Stage Focus
During the last two decades we've
seen venture funds and investments increase tremendously.
In the early '80s, a typical venture fund had an average capitalization
of $10 - $25 million, with an average investment of $1 - $2
million. Today, venture fund capitalization is frequently
hundreds of millions of dollars - with a commensurate increase
in average investment size.
We believe the trend
toward larger funds has stymied investments in smaller early-stage
companies. To capitalize on the trend, Techfarm Ventures is
committed to funding promising start-ups and has sized its
fund accordingly.
Industry Insight
Techfarm Ventures is more willing
to invest in early - and consequently riskier - ventures.
We understand the amount of time and resources that are necessary
to insure the success of early-stage companies. The operational
backgrounds of our team members provide us with the experience,
insight and confidence to successfully assist seed companies
with their progression through the corporate development process.
Information Technology Sector Focus
Techfarm Ventures focuses on the core
technologies within the information technology sector and
concentrates on finding extraordinary fundamental technology
opportunities within the general industry.
Our team members
believe that focusing on more specific sectors significantly
limits the potential of the fund by unnecessarily narrowing
its scope. Our collective venture capital experience is broad
enough to provide in-depth industry knowledge for our fundamental
technologies fund. However, before funding any company we
insure that our team has the experience to provide in-depth
industry knowledge, and a long-term commitment, to each company.
