Curious to see what it looks like when early-stage investing is done well? Check out our Valhalla Family of Funds. It’s made up of several debt and equity funds developed to match the interests of our investors with the needs of early-stage ventures.

The relationship between VCs and Founders is much more complicated than just securing funds. Making sure the relationship is the right match is crucial to both parties' success. Founders should ask themselves these 5 questions before accepting an offer from a fund: 1. Do you like them? Relationships based on trust, mutual respect, and shared values will outperform. 2. What will they do?... 3. Do they have capacity to deliver? 4. Do they have a good reputation? 5. Are they aligned on the exit plan? Forbes

Through our initiatives and educational programs, Valhalla meets the entire lifecycle needs of both businesses and investors. From cradle to exit & back. Wherever you are, we can help.
