Ask any venture capitalist the keys to success and you’ll likely hear three factors.
- Top tier deal flow
A variety of deals across sectors
Enough investments so Power Law, where the top 10% of deals drive all your returns, plays in your favor
The question is how can a regular investor cover all those bases?
Your first thought might be big name venture capital funds.
Sequoia Capital Venture Fund XI is one of the most famous of all-time, returning 8x to investors. The fund made 88 investments in total, with four significant successes - LinkedIn, Kayak, Palo Alto Networks, and YouTube - driving the majority of the returns.
Of course the price tag to participate in a fund with Sequoia is steep. You’re looking at six figures, minimum, with the entry tag going as high as $250M to take part in their Global Growth Fund. That limits access to high net worth individuals, larger family offices, and major institutional investors.
So how can you tap into all the elements of venture success - top tier deals, enough variety to build a portfolio and enough investments to take advantage of Power Law?
There’s one way that checks all those boxes with access to the upside of $2.6 billion in capital deployed and funding for 31 companies that reached unicorn status.
The best part is you can access all those benefits with just one investment. It’s an opportunity to share in the profits of deals like:
Multiples are performance to date from time of investment to latest valuation or time of exit
Over the years, Republic has invested in some of the world’s top companies including every name shown above.
Now, we’re excited to share profits from our current and future investments with our community, inviting anyone to join our journey by holding Republic Note.
Republic Note is a dividend-generating digital security available to anyone in the world. It’s your ticket to join our mission. When we succeed, you succeed.
In doing so, you’ll be benefiting from the upside of investments made right alongside famous VC firms like Tiger Global, Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Goldman Sachs, Founders Fund, Black Rock, Union Square Ventures, Softbank, and dozens of others.
Here’s how it works.
Note gets a share of the profits from Republic’s venture portfolio: Republic holds investments in over 600 companies. That’s more than enough holdings to enable the benefit of Power Law, where the top 10% of venture capital investments drive all your return, to take effect. Whenever there’s a successful exit event, a portion of those proceeds are allocated to Republic Note holders.
Note pays $2 million worth of dividends at a time: The profits from those exit events accumulate and are distributed as dividends whenever the pool reaches $2 million. The cycle then repeats itself every time the $2 million mark is hit. The profit pool currently sits at $1.6 million.
Note payouts go to all investors: Whether you’re buying Note for the first time or are a long-time holder, dividends are based on the amount of Note you hold at the time of distribution regardless of when you acquired it.
Note holdings are diverse: You gain access to the upside of a variety of sectors from Space to Fintech to Energy to Data to Digital Assets and more, instantly expanding the exposure of your own venture portfolio.
Note holdings will grow: As Republic’s portfolio grows, so do the holdings that contribute to Note. The number of exit opportunities is also expected to increase.
The number of Notes is limited: Only a fixed number will ever be issued. As a result, the value underpinning each Note is designed to increase over time as Republic portfolio holdings grow.
Note is a tradable digital security: Unlike most venture assets, Republic Note can be bought and sold 24/7 on INX, one of the few regulated platforms worldwide for trading security tokens.
Note’s minimum investment starts with as little as $50: Unlike other investments with this quality of access, you can buy into Republic Note with a minimum investment of just $50 then add to your holdings along the way.
Note gives you special access: Republic Note holders are invited to participate in…
