Frequently asked questions
What investment stages does Great Wave Ventures target?
Great Wave Ventures focuses on early-stage companies, deploying capital at the seed and startup stages. The firm's mandate is generalist venture, which means it does not publicly restrict itself to a single sector or industry vertical. Typical check sizes, ownership targets, and lead vs. follow preferences are not disclosed in public records.
Where does Great Wave Ventures' capital come from?
The source of Great Wave Ventures' capital is not publicly disclosed. The firm does not identify its limited partners, founding principals, or wealth origins in available records. This level of opacity is unusual for an exempt reporting adviser but is sometimes seen in emerging managers that operate via exempt reporting structures or raise capital on a deal-by-deal basis.
