I have been an investor in most of the Nordic Bloom funds for the last 10 years or so, and have emphasised the "wholesale based" approach to Silicon Valley based venture funds, which are among the world's best and not usually offered to investors like me, but by invitation only.

At Nordic Bloom, I have found the right combination of alternative investment opportunities with a clear time horizon and tied-up liquidity, as well as professional mediation with transparency on both possible gains and, not least, possible risks.

As an investor in several funds, I have been extremely satisfied with the development of these funds and not least the risk diversification, which for me is a cornerstone of this type of investment and which cannot normally be achieved through the usual Nordic or even European-based funds.

Nordic Bloom's venture funds give me a unique opportunity to invest through some of the most well-connected venture funds in Silicon Valley and Boston. Historically, these funds have given above-normal returns among venture funds, but have also been completely out of reach for most Danish investors. The fund I'm in follows this pattern. In addition, the administration has been service-oriented when I have needed information of various kinds.

I'm invested in 3 of Nordic Bloom's newest funds and have high expectations for a good return weighted against the risk.
Investing in the venture capital market is inherently at the high end of the risk scale, but I believe that by investing
Through Nordic Bloom, you get access to the best funds in the venture segment as well as significant risk diversification.

It's probably my entrepreneurial background that has given me the courage to invest in venture rather than just putting my money in the C25 carousel. Possibly with higher risk and a longer commitment of my funds, but with Nordic Bloom I have a unique feeling of having made a safe investment with the prospect of a significant return. Time will tell if my gut feeling is right, but so far it looks good. I'm also invited to Nordic Bloom Events, where there are lectures and presentations of great social relevance, and good opportunities to network with other investors.

At Nordic Bloom, I have first and foremost experienced a very high degree of orderliness and competence in mediation and administration. At the same time, I have gained access to an exciting investment universe that a private investor like myself would never have had access to.

As an investor at Nordic Bloom, I appreciate being part of a small "investment club" where I get a unique mix of the opportunity to invest in a unique selection of top-performing US venture funds combined with ditto unique networking among the investors at Nordic Bloom. The latter not least through their always relevant and exciting events that are organised on a regular basis.
