Feedback from investors is: They would love to BUY real estate and give it in exchange for equity with us as managers of the house and deal flow. They want the risks of Real Estate and the returns of VCs. This is VERY fine for us and our vision. We will leverage our network of 2000 past members to source startups internationally and we have 5 partners ready to open locations outside of US. Thoughts? If we go this route can we stil “fit” in the frame of VC lab and if so how?
VC Lab is designed to help people launch enduring venture capital firms. VCs invest in company equity and not in other assets. The program will be sub-optimal for non VC firms.
