Launch a Public VC Fund to your own community

For the last few decades, retail investors have been locked out of the Venture Capital asset class. Sweater fixed that. Now, retail investors can invest directly in Public VC Funds through your partnership.

How is a Public VC fund different from traditional VC funds?

There’s no difference in the types of companies you can invest in. Instead of being limited to 99 investors like traditional funds, now you can have an unlimited number of investors!

Open to all

Anyone can invest in your fund, not just accredited investors.

Low buy-ins

Buy-ins as little as $500 versus the $100,000+ traditional funds demand.

Semi-annual liquidity

Semi-annual liquidity options versus the 7-10 year lock-up of typical funds.
