It can be no small feat to manage a portfolio of 600+ companies, while at the same time providing the seamless experience I have enjoyed. I know of no other company even remotely as complex as Alumni Ventures that manages to facilitate business as effortlessly.
I have had a great experience working with the AV team. They are very smart and knowledgeable investors with an efficient investment process and concise and informative diligence materials. I have also been hugely impressed with the number of top notch deals that the team continues to access.
It's been great investing via AV. I love their speed and solutions for international investors. Their dashboard makes data very transparent: I can find out exactly what startups are part of the various funds that I invested in, and how each startup is doing.
I have sought out many avenues to become a venture capitalist. The idea of writing outsized checks coupled with finding the right companies to invest in always eluded me until Alumni Ventures came along. The thorough due diligence and entry point provided by AV has removed those previous barriers.
AV’s line into VC via smart, curated pooling is a much, much smarter play. Looking forward to increasing my stakes.
