ABOUT PRE-IPO
PRE-IPO buys shares of venture-backed companies from existing shareholders & organizes club deals.
PRE-IPO started its Private Equity activities based on the observation that tech companies are staying private for longer thus creating a liquidity gap for all shareholders. PRE-IPO fulfill this gap and acts as a liquidity provider overtime purchasing shares in late-stage venture-backed companies from existing shareholders (founders, employees and early investors).
Our two main investment criteria are the quality of the cap table and a medium term exit horizon (maximum 3 years). We thus constantly monitor tech market fundraising and review top-tier VC portfolios to source deals that fit our highly selective criteria. Deals selected are proposed to our exclusive investors' club.
LIQUIDITY ENABLER
" No liquidity, no value "
FOR FOUNDERS & EMPLOYEES
We believe that founders & employees net worth shouldn’t just be theorical and they should get the liquidity they deserve to buy a house, diversify their financial portfolio, pay off taxes or large expense, start a new business and / or invest in startups.
On top of that, employee liquidity becomes more important as companies stay private longer. Employees have varying financial needs and liquidity allows them to address these needs without leaving for a public competitor.
