Baird Capital

We partner with founders who have experience and expertise in industrial automation, healthcare, and enterprise spaces and are building the next industry game changer. We invest in Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A companies anywhere in the United States and Canada. ‘VALUE ADD’ IS MORE THAN ASKING ‘HOW CAN WE BE HELPFUL’ Whether it’s customers and revenue, talent, partners, or investors, we help bring a variety of diverse perspectives to the table to help our companies succeed. Our CXO Network , consisting of 44 C-level executives from Global 1000 Corporates and other major institutions, consistently generates valuable insights and customer connections and has created many sources of revenue for our companies. THE DNA OF THE FUND IS ROOTED IN THE TEAM’S TECHNICAL AND ENTREPRENEURIAL BACKGROUND As former technical operators who have previously built and exited companies, we know what it takes to build successful enterprises and how to overcome challenges specific to those building technology startups.

Our Venture Capital activity, the historic heart of Omnes, with €700M under management, supports innovative European start-ups in two sectors: Technology and Healthcare. The companies that we choose to finance – which create disruptive innovations as well as strong commercial traction – define tomorrow’s technological products in the fields of Deep Tech (complex software, new space, cyber security, new materials, industry 4.0) and Healthcare (human healthcare innovations). Investment strategy:Sector: Deep Tech Geography: Pan-European with main focus on French and DACH innovation ecosystems Development stages: Early Stage with main focus on Large Seed et Series A Investment tickets: First investment of €3M to €5M with potential follow-on up to €15M

Technology is driving fundamental transformation across all industries. By leveraging technology and data, tech entrepreneurs are quickly solving complex problems and identifying new opportunities, with extraordinary results. Established industry heavy weights with their experience, footprint and infrastructure can either be a target for disruption or emerge as natural partners to tech companies and together with them champion this new world. Arc The Gap arc investors invest in impact driven entrepreneurs and extraordinary technologies that will transform traditional ecosystems. As investors with a background in and access to legacy industries, we act at the intersection of industry and technology. In connecting relevant dots from both worlds we see a unique opportunity to improve the odds for success, to validate and de-risk as much as to fast-track access and scale. Ultimately we believe this creates unique risk-reward situations. Where We Arc We can and do engage at any point in an exceptional entrepreneurial journey across sectors, including in special situations. We have a preference for B2B or B2B2C solutions in the fields of Industrial & Enterprise technology, Fintech and Digital Health. We are attracted to ecosystems that have distinct and deep sector and domain expertise and share our ambition to drive transformational change for industry at an enterprise level. Arc ValuesENTREPRENEURIAL: We are curious, courageous and committed, such as the entrepreneurs and ecosystems we engage with. IMPACT DRIVEN: We hunt the quick wins as we simultaneously work hard and persistently on the longer shots. We want to make theories a reality, driving action and outcomes. AGILE: We believe in a simple, fast, direct and informal communication and collaboration. PARTNERSHIP: We believe in relationships based on trust and respect. We count on our partners and they can count on us. Arc An arc connects two points on a curve. Due to its unique foundation and structure, it supports more weight and offers more flexibility than any straight line.

Cocoon Capital is a leading, early-stage venture capital firm investing in Southeast Asian enterprise and deep tech startups. We engage deeply with our portfolio companies, acting as trusted advisors. We strive to give founders the necessary resources to accelerate their businesses and personal growth in a holistic environment. How do we work with you? As an active, early-stage investor, we allocate substantial time to each new company post-investment by only doing 6 new deals each year. We act as your trusted advisors supporting you in all aspects of running a business. To help you grow, we put special emphasis on your and your co-founders’ personal development. We enjoy that you are proactive and clearly state what you need from us; in return we will work relentlessly to deliver. We always seek to build long-term partnerships so that we can support you in both good and bad times. How do we source deals? Always on the lookout for the best founders in Southeast Asia, you can find us at events, conferences, demo days and at our monthly mentoring sessions that we do around Southeast Asia. We look for resilient and focused founders who are not afraid to fail forward. Our own founding experience has taught us that a seed-stage startup is a work in progress, so we are more interested in where you are going than where you are at right now. What are we looking for?Strong teams: The best teams have the right mix of deep knowledge & the ability to hustle their way through.And they enjoy working together, understand that success takes time, and can manage risk and stress. Real commitment: We are relaxed and informal but we can also be pretty straight shooters if required. As hands-on investors, we enjoy working committed teams who are ready to listen, learn and test. Exit potential: We generally invest in companies where we believe an exit could happen in 6 to 8 years. This means your market size has to be large enough and that there has to be potential buyers of your business. Scalability: Whether a copycat or an original idea, your business needs to be scalable in a sufficiently large market and be able to reach critical mass within the next 5 years. Enterprise focus: We believe investors do a better job if they stay focused. Therefore, we primarily target enterprise & deep tech companies. We believe these verticals have the largest chance of success in the current market environment. Singapore holding: While we invest in startups across Southeast Asia, companies have to agree to incorporating a holding company in Singapore before we close the deal. How does it work?Apply: We only consider applicants that have gone through our online registration system. Investment amount: We typically invest from S$500k to S$1m, depending on how much your company needs for an 18-month runway. Time frame: If your pitch deck interests us, you’ll be contacted for a follow-up meeting. We will then do due diligence on all the information provided and if everything goes well, we will sign a term sheet. The process then typically takes 8 to 10 weeks until the investment is completed. Keeping it confidential: We commit to keeping your application and all information shared with us confidential. However, we only sign non-disclosure terms as part of our term sheet and will not sign a separate NDA (Non-disclosure agreement) prior to that. This is standard practice across most institutional investors. What are the terms? Ownership stake: We don’t have any strict ownership requirements but we usually target to own more than 20% of the business after the first round of investment. Leading the round: We invest in a limited number of start-ups each year with a high degree of involvement in leading and coaching the teams. We therefore prefer to lead the seed rounds we participate in. Board seat: We always require at least one board seat for all our seed investments. However, we still find that most of our work with our portfolio companies happens outside the board room.
