Consensus

Consensus: While we will sometimes make an investment on our own if thoroughly vetted and sufficiently de-risked, we prefer to invest alongside well-established and successful investing partners.

We look for companies that are also supported by individual investors or Angel groups that we know and trust.  Folks that have done their own vetting, analysis, and sometimes hands-on development of these early-stage opportunities. 

More people have scrutinized, more perspectives have been satisfied, more questions asked, more risks identified and addressed, and more long-term investor resources are available to enhance the likelihood of success.
