FAQ
Questions investors ask.
What is Mindshift Ventures?
Mindshift Ventures is an Amsterdam-based, multi-stage venture syndicate. We give family offices, angel investors and operators deal-by-deal access to AI and technology companies, investing alongside the world's top funds. Our network of 250+ investors spans from Los Angeles to Hong Kong.
How can a family office invest in AI companies like Higgsfield or Periodic Labs?
Through Mindshift, family offices get allocations in rounds that rarely open to individual investors or single family offices. Each opportunity comes with a deal memo, terms and the data room. You decide deal by deal whether to invest and how much.
What is a deal-by-deal syndicate, and how is it different from a VC fund?
In a VC fund, you commit capital upfront to a blind pool and the manager picks the investments for you, usually over ten years or more. In a deal-by-deal syndicate, you see each company before investing and choose only the deals you want. There's no blind pool and no long commitment to a fund.
Who can invest with Mindshift?
We work with family offices, angel investors, operators and funds. We onboard qualifying investors only. Each deal is offered to eligible investors through the SPV platform, which applies the eligibility rules for your country.
How does investing through an SPV work?
Each deal runs through its own special purpose vehicle (SPV) on an established platform such as Mara Invest or Odin. The SPV holds the shares in the company, and you hold a stake in the SPV. For the company, that means one line on its cap table; for you, it means one signature, with the platform handling the documents and reporting.
Which companies has Mindshift invested in?
Among the deals we've closed are Periodic Labs (AI for scientific discovery), Higgsfield (generative AI video), Kernel (a business data layer for AI agents) and Trunkstar (an operating platform for connectivity providers). We've invested alongside a16z, NVIDIA and DST Global.
Is Mindshift Ventures a regulated fund manager?
No. Mindshift Ventures is not a licensed fund manager and does not offer investments to the public. Each opportunity is offered to eligible investors through a third-party SPV platform, on that platform's terms.
