How We Invest
From application to funding, we complete the entire process in just three weeks. At TheVentures, we value founders' time and operate a streamlined investment process.
Investment for Early-Stage Startups
SAFE enables fast financing with a simple process and helps reduce the risk of excessive dilution that can occur when valuations are set too low at the earliest stage. For an initial investment, TheVentures generally proposes SAFE while remaining open to equity.
From Review to Deposit in 3 Weeks
Founders often lose months waiting for VC responses. Without unnecessary paperwork or repetitive meetings, TheVentures operates weekly review cycles and completes both the investment decision and funding disbursement within three weeks.
A Single Interview
Our interview is not a typical IR pitch. We review your materials in advance and conduct a focused Q&A on core questions. We believe a high-density, approximately 20-minute in-person conversation is sufficient to understand the founder's capability and vision.
Sector-Agnostic Investing
We welcome exceptional founders regardless of sector. TheVentures has invested across AI, mobility, edtech, biotech, and K-beauty, and we evaluate opportunities based on team strength and market potential rather than a single vertical.
Market and Team Above All
We understand the inherent uncertainty of early-stage startups. We weigh future market potential and team capability more than the current business model. Even if today's market is small, we look favorably when rapid growth is possible. We trust teams that precisely grasp the essence of the problem and execute, and we actively back teams taking novel approaches to problems others have not solved.
