We have multi-decade relationships with industry experts, investors, advisors, sales brokers, trade organizations, talent, and more, providing access to high-quality investment opportunities.
We typically invest in companies at the seed or series A stage, but we may consider later-stage rounds if we believe the risk/reward ratio is favorable. Our investment range is between $250K to $5M+ and we have a wide network of investors for larger investments. Prospex Ventures leverages the expertise of an impactful community of experts to help our portfolio companies achieve their goals.
