Investment and Innovation is a Relationship

In the entrepreneurial world, finding the right venture capital partner is critical to the startup journey. Startups need more than just monetary investment; they need a partner who is invested in their success on a deeper level. This is where iSelect comes into play, offering an unbeatable combination of approachability, flexible capital, and an unparalleled network of domain experts.

Approachable Team

First and foremost, iSelect prides itself on its highly approachable team. We firmly believe in fostering strong, personal relationships with our startups, laying the groundwork for an atmosphere of trust and mutual respect. Our commitment goes beyond just our portfolio companies. We are invested in the broader startup ecosystem, and we genuinely want to see entrepreneurs succeed. We have a deep appreciation for the tenacity, creativity, and passion that drive startup founders. As a result, we strive to be more than just investors. We are advisors, mentors, and cheerleaders, supporting entrepreneurs on their journey, whether or not they officially become part of our portfolio.

Flexible Capital

The next significant advantage iSelect offers is flexible capital. Unlike many venture capital firms that limit their investments to specific stages, iSelect can invest at any stage, from seed through to Series C rounds. The early stages of a startup can be a particularly challenging time when it comes to securing funding. Many VC firms shy away from investing at the seed level due to the perceived risk. However, iSelect understands that every successful company has to start somewhere. We are unafraid to take calculated risks and invest in promising ideas from the outset.

On the other hand, when startups reach the Series C stage, they often require substantial capital to scale their operations. While many VC firms might balk at the substantial sums involved, iSelect can provide investments as large as $2 million. Our flexibility also means we can offer smaller investments of as little as $250,000, providing startups with the precise level of funding they need at each stage of their growth.

The Power of Network

Perhaps the most compelling reason to partner with iSelect is the unprecedented access we offer to a network of world-renowned domain experts. These are industry leaders who have been through the rigors of building and running successful companies. They are veterans in their fields, armed with invaluable insights, experiences, and connections.

Every startup would love to tap into this vast reservoir of knowledge and contacts. With iSelect, this is not just a wishful thought but a reality. We provide our startups with direct access to these experts, who can offer strategic advice and open doors to new opportunities. The value of such a resource cannot be overstated. It is like having a secret weapon that can help startups navigate the complex and often challenging world of entrepreneurship.

An Enduring Relationship

In the end, the choice of a venture capital partner can significantly influence a startup’s trajectory. With iSelect, startups are not just gaining a source of capital; they are gaining a committed partner that can offer support, expertise, and connections. We understand that our success is intertwined with the success of our startups. As such, we are fully invested in their journey, providing them with the tools and resources they need to thrive in the competitive entrepreneurial landscape.

At iSelect, we are continually inspired by the innovative ideas and the indomitable spirit of the entrepreneurs we work with. We are privileged to be a part of their journey, and we are excited about the potential to help shape the future of innovation. In partnering with us, startups are not just gaining an investor but a team of dedicated professionals committed to their success.
