• 2014 – we invest S$105K
• Current market cap = A$54MM
• Our current holdings valued = A$6.9MM – 6600% increase since
2014
• Total fund ROI upon successful liquidation of our position would be
= ~420% since 2012

Why can some VC funds outperform?
• Most funds cannot outperform due to information symmetry
• VC invests in small, private companies
• Huge information assymitries
• Performance wholly dependent on: proprietary, high quality deal
flow
• And effective pricing and structuring
