Kingdom Venture Partners, L.P.
Executive Summary
The objective of Kingdom Venture Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership") is to achieve
significant capital appreciation primarily through selective investments in private
companies, with particular sector foci including education, energy,
entertainment, financial services, information technology, Internet, life sciences,
medical devices, minerals and mining, software
and semiconductor, telecommunications and wireless. The Partnership may also invest a minority of its capital in
microcap public companies (collectively with the private
companies, "Portfolio Companies"). The Partnership was formed by
Kingdom Venture Capital, LLC, a Texas limited liability corporation
(the "General Partner"), which acts as general partner of the
Partnership and will manage its investments. Dr. Bruce Cook
and Rob Moss will serve as officers of the
General Partner (the "Principals") and Kingdom Venture
Management, LLC (the "Investment Manager"), which will
provide investment services to the Partnership. The
Principals collectively have approximately 65 years of
experience in operations, finance, administration, marketing,
sales, accounting, investing, and investment management.
Through the Principals' extensive networks, including a national Advisory Board,
they see and have access to a large volume of quality investment opportunities each
year from the full private investing spectrum, the majority of which are seeking
between $500,000 and $5,000,000 in financing. In order to capitalize on and leverage
this wealth of strategic opportunities, the Principals are forming an inaugural fund,
Kingdom Venture Partners, L.P. The Partnership will proactively screen and refer
investment opportunities from its own network of relationships in the investment
community and will actively participate (lead, co-lead and/or co-invest) with angel
groups, venture capital and private equity firms, investment banks, corporations,
money and wealth managers, family and multi-family offices, professional service
providers, serial entrepreneurs, and institutional investors, advisors and
gatekeepers.
The Partnership will invest in two types of entities-kingdom companies and
kingdom projects. Kingdom companies and projects are born out of a vision or a
dream from God and their visionary leaders believe they are "called" by God to
fulfill a divine mission or purpose. Kingdom companies are focused primarily on
advancing the kingdom of God on earth and are others-oriented as opposed to
self-oriented. That is, kingdom entrepreneurs and executives are not simply or
solely focused on creating wealth for themselves and their families but are focused
on establishing the Kingdom of God in their workplace and serving their employees,
customers and clients, suppliers, investors and shareholders, and other constituencies
with excellence and integrity. There are at least seven types of capital-economic, social,
spiritual, knowledge, relationship, creative, and political-and kingdom companies seek to
leverage multiple types of capital to create multiple bottom lines for maximum kingdom impact.
Kingdom executives operate on revelation and information, adding faith to facts, with strategy
being a key component. Kingdom companies are also focused on dominion; that is, they are called
to be influencers and thought leaders, salt, leaven and light, in their industry or economic
sector or geographic region by applying kingdom principles.
The Partnership will seek to invest $500,000 to $5,000,000 in direct investment
opportunities with private companies, normally targeted for opportunities at an
emerging or intermediate stage of growth (typically Series A, B or C rounds of financing),
with experienced management, material revenues, attractive and sustainable margins,
competitive advantage, barriers to entry, intellectual property, and/or scalable
potential to increase market share. Appropriate levels of capital reserves will be
maintained for possible or planned follow-on rounds in Portfolio Companies.
The Partnership prefers to invest with serial entrepreneurs and management teams
that have "been there, done that" before and with companies where the founders
and management have "skin in the game" and where some level of revenues and market
validation are present. Because of the depth of its Advisory Boards, the Partnership
will consider investments in almost any industry and plans to be opportunistic,
strategic, and synergistic in its investment approach. The Partnership will consider
investments on a national basis.
