20V has designed a ‘third path’ between traditional VC and pure venture building: strategic minority investment combined with operational co-building. Rather than taking majority control or simply providing capital and advice, they retain founders’ control and ownership while providing access to frameworks, expertise, and networks typically reserved for majority stakeholders. Their philosophy is rooted in the belief that ‘the skills that identify high-potential investments are the same ones that drive successful business transformations,’ operating across both investment and advisory domains to deliver differentiated value.
