Venture Alliance Partners
About Venture Alliance Partners ( http://www.VenPar.com ) "The name Venpar has almost become synonymous with successful venture capital. Venpar has helped numerous entrepreneurs to jump start their business to successful enterprises. Their key competencies lie in providing private equity to entrepreneurs and investors. However, their success stems from their simplicity and their core principles. They have literally handheld numerous startups to provide them with holistic support – ranging from financial strategizing, headhunting, investment banking and corporate therapy. What sets Venpar apart from other key players is an environment that is conducive to cooperation and sharing amongst investors – an environment where investors look out for each others’ interests, as opposed to a monopolistic attitude. Venpar's strategic guidance to investment Knowing the strategic value of different pieces of information at various points of time in an objective, quantifiable and disciplined manner helps Venpar to provide strategic investment opportunities. Venpar guides startups on various aspects such as: · Investment for private placements · Identification of emerging markets and opportunities · Optimal exit strategy planning Investment for private placements Private placement is a term used for investment being made in a privately owned organization. In such an organization, typically the principals maintain control over the organization and they are the ones who will fund the company. Therefore these funds rest at the very core of the company’s profit margins. Venpar encourages investors to tap into this opportunity to maximize profits. It tries to wean investors away from the stock market to investing in such privately owned organizations. The reason? There is much more potential in private placements as compared to a stock market, especially when seen from a long-term perspective. Identifying emerging opportunities a) Niche micro verticals Industries change and so do technologies. In this volatile market, one needs to constantly reinvent and realign oneself in order to be a winner. Venpar has always endorsed this belief and as a reinstatement of its beliefs, it encourages investors to invest in companies specializing in niche segments but who will quickly gain monopoly in such a segment. In other words, Venpar helps investors focus on quickly growing markets and micro verticals that have the unique capacity to not only differentiate themselves from others but also quickly realize Return On Investment (ROI). b) Large existing markets While Venpar advises investors to focus on potentially successful micro verticals, it also does not lose sight of large sized markets which play an important role in gaining market share. Therefore, it hunts for organizations that are fairly new in the market, yet have the capacity to offer certain products and services targeted at existing large sized markets with well defined customer bases. Venpar has identified a few such markets, which it believes carry this potential – Information Technology, Clean Energy Technologies and Nanotechnology and Life Sciences. All three have large target audiences and many market players. However, the criteria to invest in one such start up would be the ability to quickly scale up and steadily gain market share. Planning an exit strategy A fundamentally sound exit strategy will ensure guaranteed profits from what may possibly be an investment of a lifetime. This strategy rests on the principal thought that there is a right time to exit in every investment plan. Therefore, typically investors provide early stage financing to the point of market entry or buy out. Thereafter it is advisable to exit. With a solid foundation of proper tax planning, business continuity as well as seamless, smooth transitioning, investors are guided from start to finish."
