Analyse your fitInvestment thesis
LVP is a gaming-focused venture capital fund investing exclusively across the global games ecosystem — interactive entertainment, studios, content, technology, platforms, and services. Founded by industry veterans from EA, Atari, and Criterion Software, LVP's thesis centres on the belief that exceptional gaming founders require capital from investors who genuinely understand the creative and technical challenges of game development. As LVP puts it: 'We are experts in the games sector, and we only ever invest in the games ecosystem. We speak the same language, share the same references, comprehend the same challenges.' The fund invests at angel, pre-seed, seed, and growth stages globally, seeding roughly 8 new enterprises per year and making follow-on investments into ~80% of its portfolio. LVP's strategy is to 'nurture a network and community of games companies, leverage our experience and connections and hedge the hits-driven nature of games by mixing game genres, platforms and a wider technology/ecosystem investment approach.'
