Organized in 2001, The Trelys Funds focuses on entrepreneurs located primarily in South Carolina and the surrounding region. Trelys focuses on early- to middle-staged financings in a variety of industry sectors including information technologies, communications technologies, biotechnologies and life sciences. The firm's typical investment ranges between $500,000 and $3 million. Trelys normally does not consider seed stage investments, but rather helps commercialize products or services that are in the marketplace, already producing revenues, but not necessarily profits. The founding investors of The Trelys Funds include BlueCross BlueShield of SC, BB&T Corporation, Carolina First Bank, First Citizens Bank, the Clemson University Foundation, and the Medical University of SC Foundation.
