Build an outreach list that fits your company
Use the IoT label as a starting point. Review recent portfolio companies, identify the partner who covers your business model, and check whether your product and customer segment match the firm’s actual thesis.
Explain the problem, founder advantage, early customer evidence, and the next milestone this capital unlocks. Ask whether the investor backs companies before repeatable revenue.
- Check the mandate. Confirm sector, stage, geography, check size, and whether the firm leads or follows rounds.
- Find the relevant partner. Read current team profiles and recent investments before asking for an introduction.
- Make the fit specific. Explain your product, customer evidence, round size, and why this firm is a match.
- Use the correct submission route. A general office contact may not accept investment pitches. Look for a current pitch form or a partner’s published instructions.
How these guides are compiled. Directory labels may include source-list classifications. Confirm current activity and investment preferences directly with the firm.
