Description

Established in 2007, Florida Opportunity Fund actively invests in Florida-focused venture capital funds, infrastructure projects, and emerging companies with long-term growth potential. Their portfolio includes startups like Fattmerchant, Anuvia Plant Nutrients, and Tower Cloud, operating in fields like e-commerce and consumer goods. The fund typically invests in rounds with 4-5 participants and has notable sponsors like Sutter Hill Ventures and Kinetic Ventures. While the fund does not have a specific preference for the number of founders, startups with 4 or 5+ founders have a lower chance of receiving funding. The fund generally invests in companies that are 4-5 years old. With a focus on the United States, Florida Opportunity Fund has a track record of investing in deals ranging from $10-50 million and has had a higher number of exits in 2016 compared to other organizations.
