Selection Process

At WAIP, we understand that finding the right startup to invest in is a challenging task. That is why we have a thorough selection process in place to ensure that we identify the best opportunities and support them as they grow and succeed.

Initial Screening
Our selection process begins with the review of a large number of business plans and executive summaries from startups across various industries and geographies. We look for companies that have a clear vision, a track record of success, and the ability to execute their plans. We also prioritize investments in companies that are using cutting-edge technology to solve real-world problems and have the potential to disrupt their respective industries.

Due Diligence
Once we have identified a promising startup, we conduct an in-depth analysis of the company’s market size, scalability, and potential for growth. We also evaluate the quality of the founding team, the strength of the business model, and the company’s traction and revenue potential.

In addition to our analysis, we also conduct reference checks and speak with industry experts to gather additional information on the startup and its team. We also hold meetings with the startup’s management team to further understand the company’s strategy and plans for the future.

Decision
Once we have conducted a thorough evaluation, we make a decision on whether or not to move forward with an investment. If agreed to invest, we are open to leading or participating in later rounds as well.

We understand that investing in startups is a high-risk, high-reward endeavor, and we are committed to doing our due diligence to identify the best opportunities. We believe that by following this process, we can identify the most promising startups and generate strong returns for our investors.
