At SEED Capital, we go through the investment process described below when we evaluate an investment project.

Phase 1: Screening

In the screening phase, we evaluate how your investment proposal complies with our strategic investment criteria and if your preliminary business plan is plausible. If affirmative, we will allocate the resources to evaluate the proposal more closely.

Phase 2: Evaluation

If our preliminary overall assessment of the investment project is positive, we will expand our knowledge in the area with the assistance of external experts and analyze the technology, market, profitability, and other aspects relevant for a future investment.

Phase 3: Basis for Decision

In this phase, we look at barriers and possibilities for the investment and give you a preliminary evaluation. The evaluation will be written in a report that will form the basis of a preliminary investment decision subject to a due diligence investigation.

Phase 4: Due Diligence

In the due diligence phase, we will try, wherever possible, to verify the information given in order to identify and solve essential conditions before an actual investment process can begin. In this phase, we involve supplementary documents, experts, and statements from a third party. If the investment possibility still looks interesting, we will prepare a recommendation for investment.

Phase 5: Investment Decision

In the final phase, either our own investment committee or our investment board, depending on the size of the investment, approves the investment in a company.
