Aristos Ventures invests in highly capital-efficient technology companies in Texas that need critical early capital (e.g. $300,000 to $2 million) in order to produce a product and generate revenue. The Managers of the Fund are seeking to build a diversified portfolio of 7 to 9 such companies each capable of achieving an exit of $5 million to $20 million plus. Aristos Ventures describes itself as a micro venture capital (VC) or seed fund. The firm is geographically agnostic, but focuses on the technology centers of Texas in Austin, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio. Target industries include: Mobile Enrichment, Web Based Applications and Information Services, Security, and SaaS/Cloud Infrastructure. Rounds are typically in the $200,000 to $350,000 range, with $750,000 to $1 million generally being invested in any single portfolio company.
