Venture capital is a pretty basic concept. An entrepreneur has a brilliant idea and does the research to create a credible and full picture of the available market and presents it to private investors who are expert at assessing opportunities. The investor, if convinced of the idea and confident of the proposed management team may decide to go ahead and negotiate an aggressive return on their investment in return for taking on the financial risk.
That is basically what a venture capitalist does and how they make a return on their investment. Assessing new ideas. But there is a new breed of venture capitalists emerging that are much more aggressive about making their investment positions.
A investorpreneur is a venture capitalist that doesn’t invest in the project like the traditional “silent partner” role of a venture capitalist. But instead they purchase an idea outright. This at first look may seem strange, but these investorpreneurs are emerging as “go between’s” between entrepreneurs and high net worth individuals.
There is always a demand for high risk/high return projects and most entrepreneurs are amazed by the proposal of a investorpreneur to simply offer to buy the idea outright. These investorpreneurs then go ahead and re-sell the same idea (sometimes even retaining the originator of the idea to make the same presentation and the same management team) to cashed up high net worth individuals or corporations seeking synergistic investments.
This practice is becoming more and more common and the deal is usually a win win because the original guy with the idea gets paid well for the idea outright and most people would agree that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. While the investorpreneur gets a nice quick markup on the idea and project and the end party gets a well documented and professionally researched concept that they can invest in. So the investorpreneur gets his own investment paid for buy the new party and gets a cut of the success of the project virtually for free.
