OVERVIEW

The key to angel investing is strong returns, therefore when backing a syndicate you should look at the person's past performance and the investments they have are in. Most investor syndicates will just say they are looking for the next Unicorn, most haven't invested in any.

BACKGROUND & EXPERIENCE

My background in banking , finance and auto industries as well as being CTO of a startup > $30m revenue puts me in a unique position. As Co-Managing Partner of http://cp.ventures that invests in global companies with strong co-investors our first fund is one of the highest performing funds globally. Our deal-flow is global, from Oceania, SE Asia, North America, LatAm, India and Europe.

In my portfolio of approximately 100 companies;

1) 2 Decacorns in my portfolio invested in Series A/B.

2) 6 Unicorns in my portfolio invested from either Seed or Series A including 1 IPO and 1 SPAC IPO.

3) 12 Soonicorns that are pre-seed / seed companies on their way to Unicorn such as (Albert, Arcadia Power, Metigy, Volansi, Nutromics, Zainar , Kami etc)

3) 1 in 5 investment ratio of Unicorn/Soonicorns to overall portfolio size.

STRATEGY / VALIDATION

I have reviewed thousands of pitch decks, most of which go into the 'pass' bucket. My investment strategy uses a combination of my previous experience in technology, startup's and public investment markets along with my 'secret sauce'.

SYNDICATED DEALS

1) I will only syndicate deals where I am extremely confident that the startup has the 'chops' to deliver and disrupt their domain.

2) I put my money where my mouth is and invest between $25K - $200K of personal money in each investment across multiple rounds.

3) I work alongside the startup's I syndicate as a trusted advisor ensuring the startup get's all the support it can get whether it through introductions, relationships or resourcing.

4) I ensure that the companies I advise are capital efficient to ensure that investor capital isn't diluted to oblivion in subsequent follow-on rounds.
