PRIVATE STAKES PROGRAM

Under the newly branded Private Stakes Program, Laidlaw Private Equity, LLC has developed a growing family of independent alternative investment vehicles, having sponsored 21 pooled funds over the last 12+ years. These specialized investment vehicles typically target a 3-6 year horizon, unlike more traditional private equity and venture capital funds which typically require a minimum of 7-10 year commitment... The Private Stakes Program provides qualified individual and entity investors access to stakes in the same private venture-backed companies historically available only to select institutions. By strategically targeting a limited number of late stage, private technology issuers, it aims to develop a focused portfolio in each fund, with the goal of providing a shorter investment and liquidity horizon than typical private equity and venture capital funds.
