Member-Managed Annual Funds

Golden Seeds offers its members the opportunity to complement their direct investments in companies through its Annual Funds. Each year since 2022, Golden Seeds has created an Annual Fund, a member-managed fund exclusively for Golden Seeds members.

Capital is collected early in the calendar year with one capital call. Members who are investors in the Annual Fund vote to determine investments, typically investing in 8-10 companies, with investments completed within the first 12 to 15 months following the year the Annual Fund is launched. Candidates for the Annual Fund utilize existing Golden Seeds deal flow processes and deal teams. Each Annual Fund's lifespan is anticipated to be 10 years.

The Annual Fund invests in multiple companies, providing diversification to its investor members. Golden Seeds members who invest in the Annual Fund may also continue to invest in individual companies.
