Driving Alpha

ffVC’s investment conviction, across all funds, comes through exhaustive due diligence. We set the bar very high before deploying capital as we only invest in 5% of the 3,000 deals we review a year. After we invest, we devote extensive resources beyond just capital to help companies grow from the Seed through to Series A to Series B, including access to our exclusive accounting firm, 35,000+ founder and investor ecosystem, and investment team that advises on product development, sales & marketing, and revenue generation. This has translated, to date, to top decile performing fund portfolios with 26 exits and more than a half dozen of pre-IPO unicorns driving over $100 million in annual recurring revenue.
