We fully understand the limitations that entrepreneurs face when it comes to Venture Capital, because we’ve been there – having personally dealt with, and overcome, many of the challenges and frustrations of early-stage start-ups. However, to ensure we truly deliver optimal value for both our start-ups and Investors, we have defined a clear investment focus.
