Frequently asked questions
How does iSelect source its underlying venture fund relationships?
iSelect identifies specialized venture capital firms operating in its target sectors — primarily food and agriculture, health, and resource efficiency — and commits capital to those funds as a limited partner. Its relationships appear to draw on Carter Williams's industry network, built through his operating and investment experience in food and agriculture technology. Public filings confirm commitments to funds managed by S2G Ventures and Flagship Pioneering, among others.
Is iSelect a venture capital firm or a fund-of-funds?
iSelect functions primarily as a thematic fund-of-funds with a co-investment overlay. The firm raises capital from accredited investors through pooled vehicles and allocates the majority into external venture capital funds. It selectively makes direct co-investments alongside those same fund managers, which allows investors to gain concentrated exposure to individual portfolio companies on top of their diversified fund commitments.
Which sectors does iSelect explicitly target?
The firm targets food and agriculture technology, health and wellness, and resource efficiency. These sectors reflect Carter Williams's operating background and a thesis that scientifically driven companies addressing global challenges in food security and human health represent overlooked venture opportunities for Midwestern investors.
