Fund-with-Funds Strategy

Hypernova takes a Fund-with-Funds approach to venture capital, providing moderate LP commitments to the next generation of great fund managers.

We combine co-investments and direct investments into high-potential, early-stage companies alongside strategic fund partnerships.

The Challenge with Traditional Fund-of-Funds

While providing instant venture exposure, traditional models often play to averages and suffer from fees-on-fees that diminish returns.

Our Differentiated Approach

We focus on identifying exceptional fund managers and co-investing directly in breakthrough opportunities, avoiding the average trap.

Bridge Round Preference

With our LP Commitments, our partner GPs often raise the opportunity to invest in off-market moments, usually in an Inside bridge round, or an extension of a previous round.

From our experience, these investments often generate quick markups and higher returns than what would be expected from a traditionally priced round.
