Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find your question?
What does RVC look for in a deal?

What is a Deep Dive?

Deep dives are two hours of face to face interaction between the CEO and management team of each company, and angel investors. This time provides the chance to answer any questions that may have arisen from the pitch. We typically do Deep Dives monthly for a few select companies. Investor Members gain access to these Deep Dives.

What does the negotiation process look like?

RVC and Lead Investor negotiate a deal that also takes into account a collaborative agreement with followers and syndication partners (other Angel groups, VCs, etc.). The negotiation process includes valuations, board seats, liquidation preferences, securities type, as well as other terms.

How does syndication come into play?

We share due diligence and term sheets with other angel groups, VCs and other investors. This helps engage out of state investors and increase the total amount raised if necessary.

Is RVC a broker dealer?

RVC is not an advisor nor a broker dealer. We are a community of investors who enjoy angel investing and the opportunities that come with it.

What are some resources RVC offers if I want to learn more?

RVC offers the following workshops to bring angels up to speed: Pitch Academy, Valuation for Early Stage Companies, Term Sheets & Negotiation, Exit Strategies, Due Diligence, Strategic Planning for VC Companies, Proformas and Financial Projections, Patents and Intellectual Property, Angel 101, How to be a Lead Investor, and more.
