    Description:

    Motley Fool Ventures is an early stage, technology-focused venture capital fund, powered by The Motley Fool's brand, investing approach and communities. The firm considers early stage to be young, growing companies with operating businesses and initial customers. Often, these companies fall into the category of Series A, but Motley Fool Ventures recognize that those labels are fluid. While not all of the firm's companies will initially be focused on revenue, many will join the portfolio with between $500K and $5M of annualized revenue. Motley Fool is focused on companies from a variety of industries and geographic locations (current portfolio includes investments in such sectors as HR & CultureTech, FinTech, HealthTech, FoodTech, ConstructionTech, and LegalTech). Fool targets companies with a current pre-money valuation between $10 million and $50 million. The firm initially invests $500,000 to approx. $2 million, leaving room for follow-on investment. Motley Fool Ventures has the collective wisdom of over 800 business people, entrepreneurs and advisors, ALL with a transparent and vested interest in the Motley Fool's philosophy and approach.
