## Questions

### How does Strandview Capital source investment opportunities?

Strandview relies on the Btech Consortium's bank members to identify technology needs and validate startups. The consortium structure turns operating community banks into a proprietary pipeline — member banks surface pain points, refer vendors, and often serve as design partners or first customers for portfolio companies.

### Is the Btech Consortium Fund a traditional venture fund?

No. The fund is capitalized by a group of community and regional banks that join the consortium. Strandview manages the vehicle and co-invests alongside member banks, but the governance and LP base resemble a club deal or industry consortium more than a blind-pool venture fund raised from institutional limited partners.

### Does Strandview Capital invest outside the United States?

All publicly confirmed portfolio companies — BlastPoint, Castellum.AI, Vikar Technologies, DefenseStorm, and PortX — are US-headquartered and sell primarily to US depository institutions. The firm has not disclosed any non-US investments.
