Thesis
Lateral Capital Management, established in 2003 and based in Sarasota, Florida, is a venture capital firm that concentrates on early-stage investments within the United States. The firm's investment strategy involves partnering with angel groups to identify companies with a completed product or service, proprietary technology, logical strategic buyers, and business models that lead to cash flow breakeven. Lateral Capital targets gross returns around 2.5x their money (MOIC) with a rate of return around 20%. The firm's investment scope spans a broad range of sectors, including healthcare, industrial products, and B2B software, with a potential interest in solutions for Alzheimer's. However, it avoids distribution-driven categories like food and beverage, location-dependent businesses like restaurants, online gambling, computer games, or marijuana companies. Lateral Capital operates as a Limited Partnership supported by accredited investors, including CEOs, CFOs, and investment bankers, and aims for investments that contribute to the 'Greater Good'.
