Strong Ventures

Strong Ventures' own site states, in full, that it is "a generalist VC firm based in LA and Seoul, backing early-stage startups with a focus on Korean founders". The site is a single landing page carrying three links only: an English portfolio page, a Korean portfolio page and a pitch-submission page. Because the firm publishes no stated sector focus, sectors is left empty rather than inferred from portfolio companies. The structure is two jurisdictions: a set of Delaware-incorporated funds and general partners administered from Los Angeles and filing Form D with the SEC, and a separate Korean operating company, 유한회사 스트롱벤처스, in Seoul.
