We invest in both equity and digital assets and bring a powerful, diverse and global network to support our portfolio companies through financing to execution taking a long-term VC company building view. We work closely with other leading applied Artificial Intelligence, Fintech and Blockchain focused funds, family offices, large corporations, subject matter experts, and active accredited investors sharing deal flow with them and helping our portfolio companies complete oversubscribed funding rounds and token sales with strong support on exchanges and in structuring strategic partnerships. We bring the best practices of classic venture capital to a new world of the blockchain, AI, and digital assets including an unparalleled level of deal flow, due diligence and value add to our portfolio companies post-investment in growth and execution. We also invest in startups with no connection to blockchain or DLT that are developing financial technology infrastructure or pioneering a new world with automation and digitalization at the core. We also seek to partner with startups that develop Fintech, applied AI, ML and software automation bringing enormous efficiency to enterprise, government, and society toward a digital world.
Our VC Fund is 100% focused on AI, Fintech, and Blockchain. Once every decade or two a new computing platform comes along. We are investing in technologies that will create this new platform and the infrastructure that shapes Web 3.0 technologies and the foundation of new financial capital markets. We are investing in the roads of the future that connect everything.
7BC is led by a seasoned team of venture capital veterans and subject matter experts that bring a top quartile track record and old-school VC approach to investing. We enter into a long-term partnership with our startups to build lasting, high growth, profitable businesses that leverage transformational technologies. We only invest if we believe we can add value beyond our capital while leveraging our centralized and decentralized team with global experience and network to build the Artificial Intelligence, Fintech, and Blockchain titans of tomorrow.

The 7BC Roadshow Network is a powerful network of local City Managing Director teams in over 50 cities worldwide where local angel, family office, VC, hedge fund and other institutional investors assemble to hear pitches and meet entrepreneurs raising capital or informing investors of their publicly traded startup’s performance. Events take place in a single city every 3 to 6 months. Select startups travel on the roadshow until they complete their funding rounds and continue to present to investors after they are listed on exchanges.
Our events are free to attend for approved angels, family offices, VCs, corporate VCs, and other institutional investors. We never accept cash from selected startups accepted to pitch, but only equity or tokens. The key point here is that all startups selected to pitch have been vetted by experienced venture capitalists that believe the stock /equity is valuable rather than just accepting cash payment to pitch which is the case with most fundraising events.
Our investor network is currently focused on leading startups in the sectors of applied Artificial Intelligence, FinTech, and Blockchain. Startups pitching will range from early stage Seed to late-stage Seed, Series A and growth stage scale-up stage startups with $100m+ in revenues.
Once a year we organize an off-site retreat in a special resort location exclusively for our City Managing Directors for them to all meet each other and develop their networks among themselves over one day and evening. The following days we invite our entire global investor database and elite startups to join us over a few days of pitching, keynotes, content and pre-booked 1:1 meetings.
Cities we expect to have operational by the end of 2020 include
