Investing in U.S. Growth Technology.

Before the IPO.

Preva Capital GmbH is a German investment firm focused on direct secondaries in leading U.S. private technology companies, enabling private co-investors to participate deal by deal.

Direct Investments in U.S. Growth Technology
(Series C to Pre-IPO)

Preva acquires existing shares from early shareholders, such as employees, in category-leading private technology companies.

This allows access to scaled U.S. growth firms without competing in oversubscribed primary financing rounds.

Strategy

Thesis

2% of VC-backed companies generate ~90% of realized value (1).

U.S. technology companies remain private 3x longer than in the 2000s (2).

Since 2018, top venture funds have delivered near-zero distributions (3).

Liquidity needs among employees and founders have reached record highs.

Shares often trade at discounts to prior valuations and public market peers.

Preva Capital invests exclusively in this segment by acquiring direct secondary positions in scaled U.S. growth companies (>$50m revenue, >$1bn valuation).

These firms combine lower risk than early-stage venture with 3–5x return potential.
