We prefer investing in mid-stage stage companies, but make an exception for early stage companies with compelling technology and products. For high-end investments, we bring in a global investment company as a lead investor, and we take the position of a follow-on investor, or a strategic partner, to make sure a deal happens even when we are not at the forefront. We use the following criteria for investments:
• Disruptive technology
• Management team with a proven track record
• Market leader in the markets they serve
• Clearly defined exit strategy
