Technical Due Diligence for Investors

Angel investors and venture capitalists invest in high potential technology startups. They try to maximize return on investment by carefully selecting companies and by closely managing the inherent risk.

Investors hire me for technical due diligence. My due diligence investigations cover technology, product, market, usability, team, organization and process. Having seen many startups from the inside, I reliably discover red flags but at the same time strive to provide growth advice to healthy startups.

Technical Due Diligence Projects

Big Bang Ventures

Big Bang Ventures is a leader in seed and early-stage venture capital funding. Big Bang has recently made several investments and now has over € 40 million under management. In addition to funding, Big Bang Ventures helps startups accelerate their growth.

I did technical due diligence for Big Bang’s investment in Wakoopa. The funding of Wakoopa, described as “the last.fm of software”, drew much publicity from among others TechCrunch and Amsterdam-based TheNextWeb blog.

Big Bang asked me to perform technical due diligence on another significant investment, London-based Travel Intelligence, an online travel booking and review site focused on boutique and luxury hotels.

Newion Investments is an independent venture capital fund founded in December 2000 and focused on companies operating in the ICT industry. Newion invests in the range of € 250,000 and € 2,500,000 and remains actively engaged with its portfolio companies.

Newion Investments contracted me for the technical due diligence of their investment in Service2Media, a provider of applications for mobile devices that attracted funding for international expansion and future product development.
