HOME : ABOUT : OVERVIEW Innovation is the engine of freedom, and nowhere is this more true than in the world of mobile connectivity.  The IT revolution, which has liberated us from our traditional limitations of knowledge and distance, is today liberating itself from the confines of fiber and cable.  Speed and access have joined with a new partner: mobility. The Jarvinian Venture Fund has been established to seek opportunity in this wholly new Information Technology revolution, whose size and scope dwarfs that of its most heralded predecessors.  Spanning the Core Infrastructure, Advanced Components, and Enabled Media sectors, Jarvinian's IT Mobility Initiative represents one of the private equity industry’s most focused and ambitious efforts to finance disruptive innovation in young technology-driven companies. Disciplined Investment Strategy Technology Centered Investing - Jarvinian leverages its formidable domain knowledge to identify and target young companies with industry changing intellectual property. We engage early, often serving as the first institutional investment contact for startup organizations. Focus on Expansive Markets - We look for organizations whose technologies exploit fundamental discontinuities in markets greater than $1B in size. Proprietary innovations must displace or complement existing capabilities in ways that ensure long-term market dominance. Lead Investor Preference - Jarvinian believes strongly enough in its investments to take the lead in virtually all Startup and Series A rounds. Typical initial investments will range from $1M to $5M, with an average target cap of $20M over the life of the investment. Commitment to Portfolio Companies Leadership and Expertise - Early stage ventures often require more than just monetary resources to grow. Jarvinian's managing directors help new ventures navigate unfamiliar waters, while taking care not to interfere with their vision. Systematic Development - Securing intellectual property, building a management team, and penetrating the marketplace - these are the prime imperatives of any new technology-driven enterprise. Jarvinian brings resources that accelerate growth and mitigate risk in all stages of development. Connection to Industry - Proper interfacing with industry is a critical element in the growth of emerging technology organizations. Jarvinian's unique connection to a diversity of IT Mobility sectors helps attract talent, forge alliances, and establish customer relationships.
