Investment Thesis

The Garage Syndicate operates as a democratized venture capital syndicate that provides angel investors access to VC-level deals at the best prices. Their approach centers on identifying fast-growing companies with clear competitive advantages in large, high-potential markets, led by founders the GPs personally know or have been recommended by trusted venture capital contacts. They focus on numbers-driven deals with high probability of exits and multiples, prioritizing secondary market sales to large private equity funds as their preferred exit strategy.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Democratized deal access - 'GARAGE GIVES ITS INVESTORS ACCESS TO THE FASTEST GROWING STARTUPS AT THE BEST PRICES, ASSURING THAT OUR ANGEL INVESTORS ACCESS VC-LEVEL DEALS'
  • GP co-investment requirement - GPs always co-invest in all syndicate deals, aligning interests with investors
  • Personal founder relationships - Only invests in companies where founders are personally known to GPs or recommended by trusted VC contacts
  • Secondary market focus - Prioritizes selling shares in the secondary market rather than waiting for traditional exits
  • Transparent fee structure - No membership fees; carry (10-20%) only if returns exceed 10% hurdle rate; 2-7% setup fee to cover actual costs
  • Global deal access through network - GPs have built networks across Silicon Valley, New York, Boston, Middle East, Europe, and Asia over 35 years
