What types of Projects is VentureChoice
looking for?
We constantly adapt our focus to changing market
trends and interests of our sponsors. However
at core we are always focused on IP (Intellectual
Property) intensive technology projects.
In particular, we are currently interested in
following segments:
-
Enterprise Software –
software innovations that revolutionize the
way businesses work together
-
Consumer Internet & mobile
software – the next generation of online
applications and services
-
Digital Biology - software tools
to store, retrieve, analyze and predict the composition
and structure of genes, proteins and other biomolecules.
- Cleantech – products and services driving
the use of alternative energy sources and lower
environmental impact
We prefer early stage projects that already have
a validated concept.

Would you sign any NDA?
Confidentiality is a key element in any VC's reputation
and success. Our reputation for discretion and integrity
has been well earned through years of working with
entrepreneurs and companies.
Due to the high volume of projects we are exposed
to we are not able to accept any obligation of confidentiality
with regard to information submitted during the initial
screening process.
If during the subsequent communications we both agree
that it is necessary, non-disclosure agreements can
be discussed.

What is the process at VentureChoice?
We receive hundreds of business plans a year. The
key to getting a plan accepted is to have a sponsor
within our partnership.
Once a business plan passes our initial screen, our
evaluation and decision process typically takes three
to six weeks. As the process unfolds, you may make
several presentations to VentureChoice and prospective
sponsors. Once sponsored, we work with you to finalize
the business and execution plan, term sheets are agreed
on and financing and a long-term working relationship
begins.

Why should I work with VentureChoice?
Choosing a VC is like choosing a member of your team.
Entrepreneurs should carefully assess the value-add
of potential investors, seeking VCs who know the company's
technology and markets, have built a track record
of solid successes, and can provide access to a network
that will serve the company well through its growth.
VCs should also be pragmatic and helpful while respectful
and advocate for your company at all times.
VentureChoice seeks out opportunities to work with
technology innovators and companies who have the drive
and determination to be category leaders. We add value
by helping you to get corporate sponsors and investors,
recruit talents, build management team, making tough
business and technical decisions as well as promoting
and connecting your business.
