Online Venture Capital:
Montague:
Does anyone have first or even second-hand experience with online venture capital (VC) firms?
Certain key restrictions were lifted several years ago, softening the requirements for more people to become angel investors with VC firms - enabling them to invest in syndicates (essentially, a VC fund) under a lead investor.
The lead does deals on the platform using the syndicate’s (and often their own) money. If/when there is a return, the lead takes a “carry” (commission) on the returns of each investor in their syndicate.
It sounds appealing if maybe you’ve got a couple of grand to “play with.” I simply have never spoken with anyone who’s personally done or knows someone who’s done it.

Are you talking about First Trust Deeds or crowdfunding?

Ah... now I know what you're talking about.
My original post relates more to the crowd funding type, although I was more interested in a somewhat newer form of angel investing platforms lead by syndicates.
I really lost interest, though, after listening to a podcast with Chris Sacca.

Well, yes I was having venture business. It was risky, dangerous but it was the best thing that I expirienced in last years. However, I think that when you are doing venture, you need to remember about investing capital. I was using this software for marketing target
IroNat:
I would consult Robby Robinson on this.
