Overview
Caerus Investment Partners is a micro venture capital firm that partners with entrepreneurs to provide seed capital for early-stage companies in the US. They primarily invest in businesses positioned for rapid growth and market leadership with a focus on digital media, internet, payment processing and software as a service companies. However, their goal is to partner with exceptional management teams and they recognize great ideas can come from anyone across all industries. Caerus seeks out entrepreneurs who have the vision and drive to turn unique ideas into industry leading businesses. Their peer-to-peer investment style places their focus on investing in people and ideas. They invest in smaller, niche businesses that fall outside the investment parameters of traditional venture capital firms due to the stage of the company or lack of previous experience by the management team. They are flexible as to the form, size and structure of their investments. Their mission is to partner with entrepreneurs and provide the foundation to build better companies. They believe adding value is more than just investing money and they are dedicated to working as a partner with their portfolio companies to achieve success. This is what they do everyday and it is what they have been doing for the last 10 years for Fortune 500, middle market and start-up companies.
