What Are Microcap IPOs?

Microcap IPOs represent a unique opportunity for smaller companies to access public markets with lower barriers to entry. These offerings typically involve companies with market capitalizations under $300 million, providing an alternative path to traditional large-scale public offerings while maintaining greater control and flexibility.

FAQ

What details do you require from startups? +

We ask for financial reports (showing revenues, expenses, and operations), an equity structure or cap table (to verify ownership and alignment), a concise pitch deck (explaining your model, traction, and team), a summary of how funds will be used, and any extra materials such as patents, media coverage, or performance data.

Are you a traditional venture capital firm? +

No — our model differs from a standard VC structure.

How long does the fundraising or IPO process take? +

The timeline varies by company but usually takes between 4 and 12 months.

IPOs are typically for large corporations — how can smaller companies go public through your process? +

While IPOs used to be limited to big corporations, the market now supports smaller "micro-cap" listings (valued roughly between $50M and $300M). Many recent public offerings have raised under $50M, making the process more accessible to small and mid-sized businesses.

What is your usual investment range? +

We typically invest between $15 million and $50 million in each company.
