Preferred Sectors of -Industry

■ Stage 2~3 Mining Projects

■ Alternative Energy Production & Technology

■ Information Technology

MVC works together with growth oriented emerging companies to build sustainable market leaders. We are actively seeking equity positions in companies that implement new and innovative approaches to their prospective sector of industry.

While we consider every type of project, our primary focus of interest lies in mining, energy, and IT.

Investments made in those sectors are done so if there is great potential for future IPO or RTO in order to become a listed company.

The partners who work for and with MVC ultimately make investments in companies that can clearly demonstrate potential for significant growth and return on the initial capital investment.
MVC invests in companies and projects that range from early to late stages that possess characteristics matching our criteria for suitable investments:
  • Management team with successful projects
  • Value Added projects both in terms of capital investment impact and human capital mechanisms
  • Quick and substantial growth return on capital invested
  • New technology, processes, or concepts that give the company a competitive edge
  • Definable time frame for return on investment

Early to Mid Stage Mining projects

MVC works with a global network of mineral resource experts to locate and find the best early stage projects.

In this capacity, we can serve many roles ranging from financing to brokering off-take agreements. Our extensive network of large industry and government connections enables us to identify what resources are needed now and more importantly what will be needed 3~4 years in advance. This gives us the advantage or locating and development a project such that when the targeted resource is needed, production will have already begun.

Why combine VC with Mining? Traditionally, VC investments require short incubation times and thus don’t meet the return on investment time-frame imposed by other traditional VC firms. Our approach is different. While we have traditional endeavors in the IT sector, our equity positions in mining allow us to have long term high growth commodity based investments.

Alternative & Renewable Energy Production & Technology

Korea, as a rapidly growing economy, relies heavily on non-renewable resources and thus must compete to ensure that that supply will be available and reliable.

However, to strengthen Korea’s national security, alternative sources of energy must be developed and implemented.

This atmosphere has set the stage for some of the most exciting new developments in the alternative energy sector. MVC serves two purposes: funding new projects and expanding the market for existing technology both in Korea and globally.
