The Moon Venture, c’est le Venture Capital qui finance les startups, en amorçage et en Série A, et qui les accompagne dans leur hypercroissance grâce à une équipe opérationnelle. The Moon Venture, c’est surtout une communauté de plus de 1400 investisseurs particuliers qui investissent aux côtés de 160 grands dirigeants et entrepreneurs à succès, dans des startups, du seed à la série A. Cest aussi une volonté commune de partager leurs expériences et de mettre à profit leurs réseaux, pour aider les startups à grandir. Les investissements non cotés présentent un risque important de perte partielle ou totale du capital ainsi qu’un risque d’illiquidité.
