Independence Equity is an early-stage venture capital firm that invests in companies commercializing technologies that improve resource utilization.The inspiration for the Independence Equity Fund stems from observations made by its founding partners while building, advising and investing in early-stage companies during the last decade. These observations include the growing demand for and depletion of natural resources; the ability of entrepreneurs to solve such problems through innovation; and the inefficiency of capital markets in financing early-stage technologies, especially within the Fund’s targeted investment theme (see criteria). The Fund seeks to capitalize on these observations by providing entrepreneurs with capital to commercialize their innovations and create long-term capital appreciation.
Siemer Ventures is a boutique, early-stage venture capital firm dedicated to helping motivated entrepreneurs build sustainable technology-related businesses. Our founders are start-up entrepreneurs themselves who have built successful businesses in the past, providing them with a thorough understanding of the nuances of early-stage companies. We invest in early-stage tech companies positioned for rapid growth that are run by remarkable entrepreneurs with deep domain expertise. These companies typically target large, fragmented and high-growth markets with unique and differentiated products and services. We prefer to work with emerging companies that have already taken their product or service to market, or are on the verge of doing so. We seek out companies that have outstripped the funding capabilities of their early investors but aren’t yet ready for a conventional venture capital funding round. We are comfortable in bridging this funding gap that most emerging companies experience in their early evolution, having experienced it ourselves in our former operating lives. As such, we typically invest up to $750K per venture, with our initial investment size ranging from $150K to $350K, as part of a larger investment syndicate. Additionally, Siemer Ventures co-founded and sponsors a Singaporean incubator fund, WaveMaker Labs, which is an Approved Technology Incubator under the Technology Incubation Scheme (TIS) of the Singaporean government’s National Research Foundation (NRF). WaveMaker aims to catalyze the formation of value-creating technology businesses right at the heart of Southeast Asia’s 600 million consumers and the 2 billion more in nearby India and China. WaveMaker is supported by Siemer & Associates, enabling WaveMaker to support its startups throughout their life cycle from incubation to follow on funding to exit.
