Our funds

MVP manages the All-Star Funds, which invest in mid-to-late-stage technology companies across AI, aerospace and defense, robotics, energy and enterprise software. The funds invest in primary rounds and use venture capital secondaries to add to selected positions.

MVP All-Star Funds

Committed-capital funds holding a diversified portfolio across stages, sub-sectors and geographies, with an emphasis on companies backed by established venture investors.

How we invest

We land through the primary round, and expand through the private equity secondary market. We focus on where conviction is forming and whether the price reflects it.

Co-investment

Single-company investments made alongside the All-Star Funds and made available only to investors with an existing relationship with MVP.

Investor portal

Existing investors can access fund reporting, capital account statements and fund documents through the MVP investor portal.

Advisory Solutions

For companies

Private companies often need to create shareholder liquidity before they are ready to go public. Employees may have options approaching expiry. Early investors may need to return capital. Secondary-as-a-Service™ gives the company a structured way to respond while keeping control of the process and the cap table.

Framework

Set the objectives, governance and eligibility. Decide who can sell, how much and under what conditions.

2

Structure

Agree on pricing, timing and participation using current secondary market data and the company’s priorities.

3

Execute

Manage the transaction and settlement from start to finish, including cap table administration where required.

Shareholder solutions

For shareholders

If you hold equity in a private company and want to sell some of your shares, an MVP-managed fund may be able to act as the buyer. We work with the company’s knowledge, follow its transfer rules and execute through VNTR Securities LLC, our affiliated broker-dealer.

We work with current and former employees, early investors and prior-round funds. Every transaction is subject to eligibility requirements, company approval, transfer restrictions and any right of first refusal. We will tell you early if a transaction is unlikely to proceed.

Why work with us?
