AV is a very unique opportunity. Most investors do not have access to the venture capital ecosystem, and AV provides that—especially through their syndications of individual companies.”

Alumni Funds are for the community and friends of the corresponding schools. Each Fund endeavors to make investments in portfolio companies with relationships to the corresponding school, but there is no minimum number of school-related investments and Alumni Funds typically include portfolio companies without school relationships as well.
Deal Flow & Sector Expertise
AV’s 40+ full-time investors each go deep in a specific sector—so our Syndicates are backed by real domain expertise, not just deal volume.
Every deal you see has already cleared AV’s rigorous diligence process and attracted capital from top-tier firms like Sequoia, a16z, Accel, Benchmark, and General Catalyst.
These aren’t casual angel or crowdfunding rounds. They’re highly-competitive, professional-grade venture deals—the kind most individuals never even see.
Investor Experience
Syndicate members get ~1–2 handpicked deals/month, with the option to invest starting at $10,000. Every deal comes with:
- HomeFull diligence materials (financials, market analysis, IC call recordings, AV's proprietary diligence documents) ¹
- HomeLive deal discussion with the AV investment team leading the deal
- HomeAccess all AV deal-by-deal opportunities by downloading the AV Investor App (iPhone only - for now)
