2021: Creation of the closed venture club "Syndicate"
Sberbank, Moscow Innovation Cluster and AngelsDeck organize a closed club "Syndicate." The goal of creating the club is to increase the number of transactions through collective financing to early technological startups, Sberbank reported on December 16, 2021. You can apply for membership in the club on the online platform SberUnity and the digital platform i.Moscow.
The club is designed as a full-fledged ecosystem in which participants will have the opportunity to make collective transactions, as well as exchange experience and expertise. The club also envisions training programmes for investors, which will include a range of areas from project valuations to building complex financial models. An investor with a capital of more than 50 million rubles can join the Syndicate, ready to invest at least a million rubles in the transaction at least once a year. Investors who join the club through SberUnity will also be able to get into the base of this platform and work with startups located on it.
Vyacheslav Tsybulnikov, Vice President of Sberbank PJSC - Chairman of the Moscow Bank, noted: "The Russian venture capital market needs support and an appropriate environment for development. The Syndicate Venture Club will help solve several problems at once: it will open access to unique projects, evenly distribute the financial burden between community members, and will also allow you to gain the necessary knowledge to successfully invest in startups. Listening to the requests of the club's residents, we will strengthen the dynamics of innovative development of the country as a whole, and investors will have access to an exclusive base of startups and the opportunity to invest in projects with minimal risks.

"The venture capital market of Russia is relatively young, and before investors entered it with caution. Now there will be fewer obstacles for them. Having united, Sberbank, the Moscow Innovation Cluster and the AngelsDeck Venture Club offer the investment community collective financing tools that are designed to help investors who previously acted alone minimize possible risks, "said Alexey Fursin, head of the Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Development of the city of Moscow. |
"The main rule of the venture capital world is to decide on participation in the most promising deals as quickly as possible, otherwise someone will do it instead of you. In attempts to find such transactions, private investors working independently are forced to look at hundreds of projects a month. Some of them also face a lack of time, and sometimes expertise. The Syndicate club was created for such investors. Before the transaction, its initiator is obliged to conduct a deep due diligence (collect and analyze information about the project), agree on key conditions, and also act as a trusted representative of the Syndicate, protecting the interests of all its participants. Thus, club members who are interested in investing in Russian technological projects get access to carefully selected and most promising transactions, "- Igor Kaloshin, CEO of AngelsDeck. |
According to a Dsight study, in the first half of 2021, one of the trends in the venture capital market in Russia is the growth of business angel activity. The volume of their transactions for the specified period doubled to $49 million. The proliferation of the deal syndication tool is one of the main reasons for this growth. It allows you to reduce the average check amount for an individual investor by 3-4 times, which means it allows more private players to enter the venture capital market and become investors in technology at an early stage.
