Investment Committee
A three-person investment committee (IC) is responsible for investment decisions. To qualify for funding, there must be a unanimous decision among the IC. Per FundNV bylaws, the IC must run a minimum of four pitch / investment cycles per year. Ideally, we will run 10 investment cycles per calendar year with decisions made on a monthly cycle (excluding August and December). COVID-19 restrictions and fallout will slow our pace in 2020, with the target to be fully back on pace by 2021.
Investment committee members are appointed to off-set two-year terms by the StartupNV board.
Documentation for investments, LLC formation, SPV’s and other administrative activities are conducted by our administrative partner, Assure. FundNV charges a 1% management fee and low carried interest of 5% paid to StartUpNV for general administration and pipeline management. There are two open positions for the 2021 investment committee.

Share Pricing & Timing
Informational Only – Not a Solicitation to Invest
FundNV is formed as a Nevada LLC, open only to accredited investors (no Nevada residency requirement) and is administered via a Assure.co ‘s “Glassboard” platform and Silicon Valley Bank. Minimum LP (member) investment is $10,000 for 2 fund units. Additional units are $5k each. Commitments are made via email or verbally, then documented in the Glassboard platform prior to investment.
Investors will be asked to sign a standard Assure.co administered investor agreement and fund 50% of their committed amount. The balance of the investment commitment will be called when 50% of the initial funding amount is invested (estimated to be in early 2021).
Fund minimum is $500,000 and will close to additional investors on March 31, 2021 or when $1 million (fund maximum) is committed, whichever comes first. Prices noted below are noted in 000’s of dollars.
