Introducing aVenture — the future of venture capital research. 📈
Backed by @Techstars, we just announced our coming platform to the world at our recent demo day event at Google’s Pier 57 in NYC, and we couldn’t be more excited. 🚀
With aVenture, you'll soon be able to conduct in-depth research on any private company like you would a public company. And take a deep dive into investors in private companies and the people running the companies and VC/PE firms. 📊
And coming later this year, you can even take an in-depth look at the fund level with deeper attribution level details than ever before. 💼
This is just the beginning. We’ll be launching in Q2 of this year, and change private investing and research forever. 🎤

Investing in VC, like other equity investments, is both a beta play and an alpha play.
Beta is exposure to the market / risk factors.
Alpha is excess return from picking better than average startups.
Until VC indexes are broadly investable, you're fully exposed to both. #vc

Customers are everything. They’re your lifeblood and energy source. They’re your value to the world, your meaning, and your mission. Investors are not.

Data is the future of venture capital.
Venture capital is no longer just an art, but a science. VCs who refuse to adapt risk falling behind. The era of decision-making by a rule of thumb is coming to an end.

Every seed deal I did where the founder got drunk on fundraising and then raised a massive round from Tier-1 VCs and marked me up 5x is now zero
Every seed deal I did where the founder quietly took my money, obsessed about the user, and iterated for 4 years is now a clean 10x

To be an effective venture capital investor, you have to learn to separate the hype from the substance - and be comfortable with the fact that you're wrong more often than you're right.

Totally agree 💯
We’re launching this very product for founders/startups and fund managers soon @aVentureFunds (aventure.vc)! 🚀🚀

10.6% of all American households were accredited investors in 2020, which means almost 90% of Americans can't invest in Venture Capital. Who else thinks this is a problem worth addressing?
We're excited to be joining the #veteran #startup conference in #sanfrancisco next week!
We'll be connecting with other #vc managers and founders to talk about how the aVenture.vc platform can help them both get funding and manage investor relations @brendan_aronson

Exciting news! @aVentureFunds was just featured alongside 20 of the "best venture capital companies and startups to work for in North America for 2023" by AngelList.
I'm a bit biased, but I agree 😊. We have a wonderful team to work with!

In 1492, Columbus set sail and forever changed our knowledge of the world. Centuries later, these entrepreneurs are embarking on humanity's next great exploration: space
Another example of how venture capital can be used to push humanity forward.

One prediction from this Forbes article is that "VCs will face more challenges raising their own funds," citing the potential for LP churn.
Perhaps it's time to introduce new LPs to the ecosystem, ie: general public investors.

Congratulations to the Forbes 30 under 30 venture capital list, the future of our industry is bright.
On a side note, when you are ready to launch your own fund we can help 🤝

As the venture capital industry rightfully pushes for further diversity and inclusion, it's important that capital sources are also diversified.
Currently, it's difficult for public funds to access venture capital assets.
We are changing that soon.
