Nearly 60% of our portfolio firms have raised follow-on funding already, and our investee startups are collectively valued at about $240M now.

For investors, Globevestor is an easy way to invest in highly-promising startups from anywhere in the world. With a very selective & curated approach (startup acceptance rate less than 1%), we provide accredited investors an opportunity to invest in handpicked, pre-screened startups. Globevestor takes care of the due diligence, terms-setting, paperwork, regulatory compliance & investment management till exit in the startups, allowing investors to remain focused on making investment decisions & helping their portfolio startups grow. We invest through pooled vehicles & charge a small carry (profit share) only at the time of a successful exit. We don’t earn any membership, management or commission fee from investors’ capital or from startups.

For startups, Globevestor is a micro-VC investing with a single entity on their cap table. We invest up to $50k from the angel fund & up to $300k from the platform, in early stage rounds. Founders only interact & pitch to our Investment Team, which makes the investment decision, conducts due diligence, agrees on terms, signs paperwork, takes up oversight roles for investment management, and leads the eventual exit decision. We support startups with follow-on investments, question their ongoing strategy, offer advice and make connections to help them.
