Review on M12 by Umar Musa
M12 also known as Microsoft Venture is a nice investment firm.
Microsoft is the lone major shareholder in M12, which is a return-driven fund.
They actually invest in premature/ early-stage corporate software startups throughout the world and are technology dependent.
Their main aim is to provide finance, business relations, and unrivaled access to Microsoft to entrepreneurs.
M12 helps executives from production lines, Research and development, and company strategy organizations make key investment decisions.
M12 was formerly known as Microsoft Ventures until 2018.
M12 is the new name for Microsoft Ventures, which has offices in San Francisco, Seattle, and Tel Aviv. Their first investment was in 2016.
Kahoot!, CloudSimple, and Figure Eight are among the first investments. Their multidisciplinary and international founding team and investment partners has extensive experience in making investments, entrepreneurial studies, management consulting, product development, finance, and go-to-market strategies.
Irrespective of where your company is based, they will certainly put together the right team of international companies to help you grow.
The current General Manager is Tamara Steffens.
