We aim to achieve this objective primarily by identifying and investing in select venture capital funds and opportunistically in select startups. i-Qu manages discretionary commingled investment partnerships. We established i-Qu after 20 years of investing in a dynamic venture capital market and have seen opportunities continuously arise from exponential advancements in technology and its rapid adoption by society.
Our founding principle is rooted in genuine partnership with our stakeholders. We believe that collaborating with the highest caliber of individuals is paramount to any activity worth pursuing. Our investments demand exceptional insights, combined with patience and impeccable execution. This is made possible by the strength in character, commitment, endurance and expertise of the people in our ecosystem: quality investors, quality managers and quality entrepreneurs.
Our investor base is comprised of pioneering institutional investors as well as individuals who are leaders in the investment and entrepreneurial communities. We are honored to have been entrusted by these prolific, world-class investors with their capital. We are committed to excellence in managing this capital, carefully balancing return potential with a thorough evaluation of risk factors for each investment opportunity, and ensuring diligent and proper oversight and management of all investments.
Investment opportunities are plentiful, particularly for those willing to search globally. Identifying truly compelling prospects, however, requires a level of judgment and expertise that is rare. While anyone can allocate capital, discerning truly differentiated opportunities and managing risk effectively is both an art and a science. We collaborate with a select group of investment managers because those who combine these qualities with a robust investment structure and a dedicated work ethic are the ones who drive successful outcomes.
Modern life owes much to the visions and sacrifices of entrepreneurs -- individuals who challenge the status quo and strive for something greater. By working with our investment managers to support these visionary entrepreneurs, we not only enhance our ability to achieve our partners’ financial goals but also contribute to the future needs of society.
Our entrepreneurial approach requires bold yet prudent risk-taking, and we believe our investors expect higher returns in exchange for such risks. Therefore, we meticulously evaluate whether our investments have the potential to provide attractive returns that align with the level of risk assumed. Additionally, we construct a diversified portfolio of promising entrepreneurial investments to mitigate the idiosyncratic risks associated with any single investment. We believe that these layers of risk management strengthen our ability to deliver quality returns to our investors.
Successful entrepreneurship not only yields financial rewards but also creates a lasting impact on society—through job creation, enhanced productivity, environmental improvements, enriched social engagement, more affordable products and services, and healthier lives. Since the Renaissance, technological progress has enabled broader participation in entrepreneurship. This exponential advancement in technology and the corresponding growth in enterprise promise to elevate our quality of life and ensure an even brighter future for all.
