Getting Started

Submitting a business plan

Although we’re very selective about the businesses we work with, we want to be as accessible as possible.

Send us a summary by e-mail
The best way to make contact with us is to send a summary of your business plan by e-mail to Andrew Abouchar, Tim Jackson, Jacqui Murphy or Peter Frisella. We will all discuss the opportunity, so it makes no difference which one of us you send it to.

A concise description of your compelling idea
As seed-stage investors, our requirements are simpler than those of later-stage venture capitalists. We’re not expecting you to present us with a plan that includes a complete management team and spreadsheets with five-year financial projections.

Initially, all we need is a summary – a succinct description of:

• Your technology – an overview of what you’ve developed
• Who will use it and why – potential customers and steps you’ve taken to validate their need for the technology
• The competition, including substitutes – what are people using today?
• The barriers to having another company duplicate it – is it hard to recreate what you’ve developed?
• Company founders and other members of your team – what is your background and domain expertise?

We’ll review your summary and contact you within a couple of days to let you know our level of interest and fit with our requirements and objectives.
