LVP鈥檚 Five Pillars of Evaluation
听
Talking to pocketgamer.biz, associate at LVP, Harry Hamer, spoke about the five pillars of evaluation used by London Venture Partners to determine whether a company is investable;
- LVP Fit (Is it a seed or earlier round into a gaming company that has sufficient ambition?)
- Market Opportunity (What鈥檚 the thesis? How do you view the market and do you have any key insights or points of differentiation?)
- Team (What is your background? What is your team composition and required domain knowledge for your product? Are you prepared to run lean and wear many hats early on?)
- Product (What鈥檚 your process in creating and validating your product? How are you planning to monetise it?)
- Financial Opportunity (How are you planning to scale and how much are you budgeting for that? What is the prize if you do succeed?)
