Value Add

Honest about VC value-add limitations: 'Most VC "value add" is an oversell' - they acknowledge support is limited to networking, sounding board, and avoiding mistakes rather than claiming transformational involvement
Explicit anti-meddling approach: 'we don't meddle, don't pretend to know better, and only try to help when both sides feel that we can really add value'
Strong emphasis on frugality and constraints: believe constraints create 'healthier business foundation' and 'unbeatable organizational culture'
Long-term oriented with founder-friendly terms: 'avoid unfair clauses in investment agreements, maintain a long-term perspective'
Hands-on partner network: Venture Partners are successful founders from their own portfolio (Jutro Medical, Simpl.rent, Packhelp, PsiBufet)
History of early success: First investment returned 34x, validating their approach
