Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at V5 Partners?
Al West, the firm's Managing Partner, leads investment decisions. His operating background and regional network inform the firm's focus on industrial and enterprise technology companies rooted in the Midwest.
How does V5 Partners source deals?
Deal flow originates through relationships with automotive and heavy-industry supply chains, regional university research commercialization offices, and operator networks concentrated in the Great Lakes. This locational sourcing model gives V5 access to industrial technology companies that are underrepresented in coastal venture portfolios.
Does V5 Partners invest outside the Midwest?
While Detroit and the industrial Midwest form V5's core geography, the firm evaluates opportunities nationally when the company's technology, customer base, or supply chain connects back to the manufacturing and industrial ecosystems that define its area of expertise.
