MK Venture Capital is a venture capital fund of funds that specializes in the software and FinTech sectors, including web marketplaces and Software as a Service (SaaS), as well as financial services. The fund aims to provide business angels and family offices with the means to develop professional venture capital portfolios, thereby enabling access to venture capital investment opportunities. They offer investors, known as Limited Partners (LPs), access to Tier 1 VC Funds, which have a track record of success and strong management teams. This access is crucial for LPs looking to invest in highly sought-after private companies in the early and growth stages, which are typically inaccessible to individual investors. MK Venture Capital sets itself apart by allowing LPs to partake in side-pocket investing, which facilitates direct investments in companies within the fund's portfolio, beyond traditional investment in the fund itself. This unique offering gives LPs a chance to achieve greater exposure to specific portfolio companies of their choice, potentially enhancing their investment strategies and returns. Through this dual investment approach, the firm caters to diverse investor needs, combining a diversified venture capital portfolio with the option for concentrated direct investments. As a fund of funds, MK Venture Capital operates with an investment thesis focused on seeking out and investing in the top-performing venture capital funds, which they believe offer the potential for high returns due to their specialized knowledge and networks within the Software and FinTech industries.
