United States > New York

I am a private investor who has spent the past 11 years in the financial services industry and looking to invest in something I am truly passionate about. This consists predominantly of food and beverage, hospitality and real estate, but am also open to creative ideas in the internet/e-commerce space. My goal is to find entrepreneurs with creative concepts so that I can (i) learn about/gain experience from the venture and (ii) achieve reasonable rate of return (15-20% over a 10yr horizon).

I have been managing an investment group since 1994 and my mentor, who is still part of the group, had been in this business for 25 years prior to me. We look for strength of management and then available market share as our primary decision making criteria. My group is made up of business people who are looking for a solid return. We provide this to them and form a separate LLC to invest into ventures; this is an advantage to you because we only use up one investor slot doing it this way. I only deal with accredited investors and my group is made up of approximately 20,000 investors based primarily in the US but some are from Asia, Europe and Canada. I believe in doing business face to face and will require an in person meeting with all the principals. I am an entrepreneur myself and currently own 4 businesses. I will consider almost anything unless you do not have anything invested in the deal.
