VIAGlobal Ventures

What is VIAGlobal Ventures?

VIAGlobal Ventures is an investment fund that specializes in financing technology companies, particularly in the domains of Software, which includes Web Marketplace and SaaS platforms, Education, AgroTech, FinTech and accompanying Financial Services, Impact sectors, Insurance and InsurTech, Payments, and Nanotechnology.

Their investment portfolio is geared towards revenue-generating international (non-US) seed stage companies that are at the pre-Series A level of funding.

They also entertain bridge investments to finance the US or international expansion of these entities. VIAGlobal Ventures strategically partners with local accelerators, venture funds, and global startup competitions for deal flow, due diligence, and access to local incentives.

An integral part of their investment thesis is to provide their portfolio companies with strategic planning and turnkey operational solutions to speed up their expansion goals, mainly into the US, but also other international markets. Their financial engagement typically ranges from a minimum investment of $250,000 to a maximum of $3,000,000, with a sweet spot around $500,000.

VIAGlobal Ventures is particularly known for funding rounds at the Seed and Series A stages. However, they have defined criteria for non-engagement as well; they are not interested in US-based companies, nor in international companies that do not prioritize US expansion.

Additionally, they avoid investing in companies that have not yet reached the Minimum Viable Product (MVP) stage or started generating revenue. They also steer clear of sectors like hardware, medical devices, and consumer products. By focusing on these parameters, VIAGlobal Ventures ensures alignment with its investment thesis while fostering growth in high-potential technology sectors.
