Experts Introduction

What we are made of :
Our tools
An ecosystem currency -
CVDS
Consilience Ventures Digital
Shares (CVDS) are the unit of
currency on the Platform. A
startup issues shares in
exchange for CVDS. Investors
will purchase CVDS to invest in
startups on the platform.
Experts will typically receive
payment in CVDS for their
services. CVDS will entitle
holders to all net income and
gains realised by Consilience
Ventures, on a pro-rata basis,
but typically with a vesting
period of 2 years. CVDS is the
mechanism through which we
ensure aligned outcomes
amongst our stakeholders –
via a platform based on
principles of trust, security
and consensus.
Collaborative vetting and
selection
Startups are selected by
network members –
preselection takes place on
the platform, visible to all
members. A qualified
assessment team is then
assembled from network
members to guide the startup
through detailed due
diligence, planning, and deal
negotiation.
Sprint Financing Roadmaps
Sprint Financing Roadmaps
are created with the startup
management team,
identifying the areas of
strategic growth the business
needs to succeed. Companies
are financed for the next
sprint (typically 3-6 months).
Once that sprint is complete
and assessed, the next sprint
is planned in detail. This indepth
planning means our
network is truly “under the
hood” with the startups and
able to design and deliver
meaningful interventions at
the right time.
Capital as a Service model
Capital as a Service works
hand in hand with Sprint
Financing. While Sprint
Financing delivers and
supports a regular rhythm to
startup growth, there are
always opportunities and
threats which cannot be
anticipated. In these cases,
Capital as a Service provides
the extra flexibility to give
founders the agility and ability
to raise money when it’s
required.
Business Intelligence
We are building an AI model
which will help us predict and
avoid startup missteps and
pitfalls. Within three years, we
hope to be in a position to
provide market-first data into
startup health.
Communication and sharing
capabilities:
In-house hosted platforms
that enable real-time
conversation with peers,
discussions on deals, working
with startups, and
collaboration. Added to that,
in-person and virtual events
exploring interesting ideas,
delving into complicated
problems, and broadening
networks.
