SPV Program

A more selective way to raise through our network.

For opportunities that clear our diligence bar, we’ll stand up a dedicated special purpose vehicle and put it in front of the Global Capital Network — a deeper commitment than a conference pitch, and priced differently because of it.

Two paths to our network

This isn’t a replacement for our events — it’s a second path.

Presenting at a Global Capital Network conference or private dinner is still the fastest way to get in front of our investors. The SPV Program is a separate, more selective track for opportunities that want a dedicated vehicle and a deeper level of commitment from us.

Conferences & Dinners

Pitch Access

  • Pay to present to our investor network at an event
  • You control your own raise, terms and follow-up
  • No vehicle, marketing or ongoing involvement from us
  • Lower cost, lower commitment on both sides
SPV Program

Dedicated Vehicle

  • We form and administer a dedicated SPV for your raise
  • We actively market the opportunity across our network
  • You cover the SPV’s formation, admin and marketing costs
  • Higher cost, but only for opportunities that pass a stringent review
The cost structure

You pay for the vehicle, not a share of the raise.

Opportunities accepted into the SPV Program cover the direct costs of the vehicle we build for them — formation and legal setup, ongoing fund administration, and the marketing spend required to put the raise in front of our network. This isn’t a percentage taken from what you raise later; it’s the cost of the infrastructure and distribution we build around your deal.

It’s a higher upfront commitment than pitching at a conference or dinner — intentionally. Charging for the real cost of the vehicle and its marketing, rather than being paid only if capital arrives, keeps our incentives pointed at doing the work properly rather than generating exposure.

How it works

From submission to close.

01

Submit for review

Share your opportunity, terms and supporting materials. Most SPV Program enquiries begin as an existing relationship within the GCN network, or a warm introduction.

02

Diligence & selection

We evaluate the opportunity against our internal criteria — team, terms, documentation and fit with our network’s investor base. Only a small percentage of submissions proceed.

03

SPV formation

Once accepted, we stand up a dedicated special purpose vehicle, structured with counsel to hold the investment cleanly on behalf of participating investors.

04

Network marketing

We actively present the opportunity across the Global Capital Network — conferences, private dinners and direct outreach to relevant investors.

05

Close & ongoing administration

Once the SPV closes, we handle the administrative backbone of the vehicle so you can stay focused on running the business rather than managing a cap table.

Selection criteria

Why the bar is high.

We put our own name and our network’s trust behind every SPV we stand up. That only works if the bar for entry is genuinely stringent.

Proven team

A track record that gives our network confidence beyond the pitch deck.

Clean documentation

Audited or reviewable financials, a clear cap table, and terms ready for institutional-level scrutiny.

Thesis fit

Alignment with the industries we know and back — see our full investment thesis.

Defined terms

A clear raise size, valuation and use of funds — not an open-ended ask.

Legal readiness

Willingness and ability to work with counsel on SPV formation without delay.

Genuine network fit

An opportunity our specific investor base — not just any investor — would want to see.

“When we’re only paid if you raise, the incentive is to say yes to more deals. When you’re covering the real cost of the vehicle and the marketing behind it, the incentive shifts back to doing genuine diligence — because we’re not getting paid regardless of whether it’s a good fit.”
— Josh Bois, CEO & Lead Investor
