  • What type of startups should submit?
    Our investor pool is looking to invest in high-growth startups across a variety of industries, geographies, and round sizes. You’re welcome to apply if you’re pre-product or pre-revenue. We don’t have a cap on valuation size, and we’re open to considering startups of all countries, sectors, and business models.
  • What kind of investors are in the pool?
    Investors that will have access to your startup data appear in all forms — from VCs and angels to scouts and early-stage funds.
  • What happens after my pitch is submitted?
    Pitches will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Each week, we select a cohort of companies to share with on our deal flow platform. If approved, your information will go live. Investors will then be able to reach out to you directly about your raise. If you are not initially selected, we encourage you to revise your submission and pitch again.
  • How do we source startups?
    Our proprietary technology tracks thousands of startups globally, providing exclusive access and insights into the startup ecosystem. Each month, hundreds of new startups join the Quantra platform, giving our group a unique advantage with a massive deal flow pipeline.
  • At what stage do we monitor startups?
    Primarily Pre-seed, Seed and Series A, although we still have interest in Series B+
  • What are the benefits?
    Most people have to wait for a company to go public before they can invest and be a part of a company's growth. By the time a startup goes public or gets acquired, much of the growth has been accrued by early private investors and investment banks. Our platform gives accredited investors exclusive access to participate in promising private startup funding rounds alongside top-tier VCs at the same terms or better, at a significantly reduced fee. Favorable terms are a result of the relationships we forge with founders and growth solutions/value add we offer through our suite of products. In addition to participating in investments, we offer the following benefits to our Syndicate Partners: The ability to offer the affiliate an opportunity to invest as a “strategic” partner thereby gaining an early understanding in new technology and IP The potential to be involved early on with a startup and have an inside track on potential acquisition as a strategic advantage based on the entity’s objectives A potential opportunity for a board seat depending on funding and company alignment A potential ability to influence the R&D and execution of the startup plan The potential to work with a startup on their IP and gain other knowledge from the new startup The opportunity to leverage the expertise of current and new members Although non-accredited Partners cannot invest in deals, they benefit from building an extensive network and receiving firsthand experience in the VC process. Non-accredited Syndicate Partners can serve as scouts and participate in due diligence, although there is no requirement to do so and can take on a passive role if desired.
  • What are the membership fees?
    Syndicate Partnership requires a base annual membership fee of $1,500 which covers the cost of operation, platform, events, due diligence, resources, and educational seminars/mentorship.
  • In which industries do you typically invest?
    We are sector, stage, and geography agnostic, allowing members to choose their investment areas. If a custom approach is desired, we do have the resources to develop a tailored solution for corporations and family offices through our VC Consulting. Please contact us for more information.
  • How do the investment memos shared with Syndicate Partners look like?
    Please use link below:
  • Is investment required? Any additional fees or investment minimums?
    As a member, we suggest investing in at least one startup during your membership, though there is no requirement on how many deals or how much capital you need to invest each year. Checks are aggregated into a special purpose vehicle (SPV) called a “syndicate,” which in turn invests into the target company. This process allows us to open access to investment opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach for many investors. Investment minimums are typically $5,000. For those that do choose to invest, additional fees include: Admin fee to cover SPV expenses. This is set at 5%, however, the final value will depend on the commitment level from other members and will vary to ensure all SPV expenses are covered. If overall commitment is low, the fee for those still interested in investing in that particular deal will be higher than 5%. We will provide full transparency on fees before any money is transferred. 10% carry on profits in the event of a successful exit. For reference, most other platforms enforce a 20% carry.
  • How does the investment process work and what documentation will I receive?
    Details on our process can be found in this link: High-level summary: Through our extensive and growing network, Quantra pursues promising startups to invest in selective, high-demand investment rounds, often along top tier VCs. Our team of investment professionals reviews a wide range of startup companies every month, through a combination of inbound and outbound deal flow. We then conduct in-depth due diligence and negotiation using our proprietary assessment technology which thoroughly analyzes each startup, significantly reducing the chances of failure. Once a deal is identified, we publish it to our network. If there is enough interest in the deal, we will host an investor call with the founders. This gives investors the opportunity to meet the team, ask questions and better formulate an investment decision. If the decision to invest is made, operating and subscription agreements are signed and funds are transferred. Expect closing to occur anywhere between 45-60 days from launch. After the round is closed, we take care of any additional administrative matters. This includes side letters, pro-rata agreements, carry share amendments or carry splits. We additionally provide ongoing reporting on investment performance and investor relations services. Examples of this can be quarterly reports containing updates on company progress and estimated metrics. When relevant, investors also receive a monthly digest of news featuring their portfolio companies, as well as other timely updates relating to investments. Exit strategies depend on the company, but generally happen in the form of IPO, M&A or secondary transaction, whereby a later stage investor offers to buy out early investors. There’s no such thing as a typical holding period, however a fast-growing company can reach $1 BN valuation in 5 years. It should be noted that any investment in startups is illiquid and there is no guarantee that an exit strategy will come to pass. You may not ever be able to sell or liquidate the investment or to receive a return of principal. Typical exit strategies are as follows: Short term. Exit in a future round in which a fund or powerful investor wants to inject significant capital into the company and additionally acquires shares from the initial or minority shareholders, i.e. they acquire your shares in order to obtain a relevant position within the shareholding. In the medium term. Acquisition by competitors or companies interested in expanding their business as well as by a fund interested in obtaining a relevant position within the shareholding. Long-term. Exit by initial listing on a regulated market, with a sale of the shares to new private investors. At any time. Sale of your shares if you have a buyer, initially among the other members, otherwise freely among non-members. Eventually. This is not the norm, but if the startup acquires a dominant position in the sector and consolidates its numbers, it may pay out dividends
  • Do I need to be accredited or an experienced investor to become a partner?
    You do not need to be accredited to become a Syndicate Partner, however you do to participate in investments. Our group includes a mix of VCs, and highly successful angel investors.
