I am amazed at the tireless efforts and connections that T2 has made for our company. The gentlemen at T2 are the type of people that you want to work with for the rest of your life."
T2VC has powerful advantages that help us seek financial return for our investors:
Unique Deal Flow
We see over 1,000 opportunities a year from our network of 100+ universities, research institutes, organizations, and strategic sources. T2VC is formally affiliated with Larta Institute, the leading enterprise assistance organization for the U.S. Government in technology commercialization. Larta manages programs that mentor about 400 startup companies each year bringing new products to market from government-funded scientific research. Larta's clients include the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Department of Agriculture (USDA), and the Department of Energy (DOE). In addition, through our team's relationship with Global CONNECT, we can access a network of over 43 innovation clusters in over 23 countries.
High Selectivity
The companies we invest in must have a combination of qualities: disruptive technology, huge market potential, strong revenue model, high differentiation, and a top-flight team. We seek investments that are "a cut above" the rest. We have deep networks based on relationships with institutes, universities, and governments that are commercializing cutting-edge scientific research. We review startups in the top 5-10% of all technologies funded by competitive peer-reviewed programs, and we carefully select those that have the highest commercial potential. We work only with entrepreneurs of the highest personal and professional caliber.
Diligence and Deployment
Our global network gives us the ability to be "in the know" about trends in new technologies, markets, scientific research, people, and investing. Our base in Silicon Valley allows us to contrast investment opportunities, to gain powerful insight into current investment strategies and entrepreneurial trends, and to assemble co-investment syndicates and follow-on capital sources. When we put capital into a company, we are able to leverage non-public information about markets and technologies that is often the critical difference in making an investment successful.
Accelerating Success
We are able to accelerate the success of our companies by connecting them with markets, customers, corporate partners, technologies, other investors, other startups, and strategic resources around the world. We provide our startups with the contacts, insights, and expertise we have developed over decades to accelerate revenues and growth. From the beginning, we help our companies plan for successful exits by positioning them strategically in the competitive startup marketplace.
