Our Investment Process
We invest with purpose, by identifying companies and sectors from market research, future economic opportunities and portfolio synergy. We are very intentional in our decision making and have summarised our decision making into 7 T's
At EchoVC, we invest in companies at different stages and write checks from Seed Stage to Series A/B. Our fund(s) cater to the diverse opportunities we see in the market and represent our desire to support and finance entrepreneurs solving critical pain points in underserved markets and underserved opportunities.
We look for solid teams and founders – entrepreneurs who have strong convictions in the problems they are solving and the solutions they are offering. We place a heavy emphasis on investing in amazing founders with integrity since they are the heart of building oustanding businesses.
For any founders who want to engage with us, it is also important to know what you are looking for from EchoVC. Why have you sought us out specifically? How can we help you build out your dream?
What We Look For:
We are particularly interested in: founders from underrepresented backgrounds (ethnic minority or female founders)
Value propositions that are addressing acute pain points for enterprises (B2B) or for consumers (B2C), including for underrepresented consumer classes
Scalable business models and large Total Addressable Markets (TAM)
At the very least, a MVP out in the market and some initial traction (we will not fund companies in the idea stage)
Indications of unit economics that are working, or close to working
