Founders Ventures Details
Founders Ventures is super excited to be building digital companies that can turn into unicorns! Founders Ventures is a startup lab, pre-accelerator fund, and accelerator that is located in Fort Lauderdale/Miami, FL. Founders Ventures invests in consumer/internet technology startups that have billion dollar plus addressable markets & engineer-oriented teams.We are a bit different in that we invest at the earliest stages of the startup and actually participate in the building of the startup. The typical stages of early stage investing are as follows:1. Case for value perpetuity & financial perpetuity & platform architecture2. MVP (Minimum viable product) of platform3. Value Perpetuity4. Financial Perpetuity5. Growing Financial PerpetuityFounders Ventures invests at the first stage while accelerators, angels, and typical VCs invest at stages 3, 4, and 5 respectively.At Founders Ventures, we are often asked, "How to build a billion-dollar startup?". We gave it some thought and used our own investment mandate to create a methodology for doing so which we call the Unicorn Methodology. The Unicorn Methodology is the following:1. Focus on consumer/internet/enterprise software2. Identify total addressable market of over $1bn3. Ensure that the team is engineer-oriented4. Build methodology around the core work process in the vertical market5. Build network & marketplace around the core methodology6. Follow customer development model & growth hack to 1, 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, 1,000,000+ users7. Monetize after value providedThis is the methodology that we use when evaluating and aiding our own startups at www.VCFounders.com
