Experience
Our team blends 15+ years of public market investing and 10+ years of private market expertise, having executed hundreds of deals across various asset classes.
Strategy
We selectively buy stakes from early investors, founders, and employees in companies with clear product-market fit that haven't yet exited.
Opportunity
Current market conditions create an ideal environment for underpriced quality assets in the venture secondaries space.
Who We Are
Opportuna was born from the need to navigate the complex and opaque world of venture secondaries. Disappointed by off-the-shelf-solutions, we combined our public and private market expertise to create a niche platform focused on high-return opportunities in direct secondaries and late stage primaries.
Our Mission...
...is to realign incentives around the cap table, support long-term value creation, and provide liquidity to founders, early investors, and key employees.
Opportuna capitalizes on the growing venture secondaries market by leveraging our deep industry knowledge and extensive network.
Our process includes:
Why Now?
The macro environment presents a unique opportunity for venture secondaries. With the 2021 growth frenzy behind us and a high hurdle rate for liquidity, companies and investors are looking for help in realigning cap tables.
Our Focus
High net IRR: Better returns due to shorter deployment phases and faster exits.
Lower risk: Consistent returns with lower capital loss risk through discount capture.
Product Market Fit Assets: Investments in companies with established PMF and plenty of data to support our decisions.
For companies, we ensure alignment. We provide liquidity by acquiring existing shares from founders, team members and early investors. We can also invest in new shares for late-stage growth companies.
Entrepreneurship involves sacrifices. We allow entrepreneurs to transform a small portion of their paper wealth into cash. Taking care of short-term needs clears the head and maximizes long-term outcomes.
Talent exodus can kill a venture. We help you retain and attract.
A clean and well-aligned cap table. Things change. We buy out former employees, early investors or funds desiring liquidity in companies.
Our investee companies appreciate our discretion. We can set up a call to discuss how we can help.
