MHCPDC - Criteria for Investment - Tech Council of Maryland

Criteria for Investment

MHCPDC's mission is to find and assess early stage opportunities not targeted by traditional Venture Capitalists. To be funded by MHCPDC these companies must meet a stringent set of criteria. Companies evaluated by MHCPDC undergo a three stage process.

Investment Criteria
MHCPDC performs a preliminary technical; market and business plan review against the following criteria.

Detailed Market and Technical Due Diligence
Once a company has been judged (on a preliminary) to meet the corporation's criteria by both MHCPDC Board of Directors, MHCPDC performs a comprehensive analysis on each investment candidate.

Investment Transaction
Following a presentation to MHCPDC's Board of Directors and its investment approval, MHCPDC works with the investment candidate to structure a deal meeting MHCPDC's criteria and customized to the investee's needs. The corporation is flexible in the nature and form of investment and develops with the candidate a fair, detailed valuation. MHCPDC actively pursues matching investment dollars from commercial and state funders and, where necessary, assists the candidate in strengthening its management team.
