Syneptics makes early stage investments of up to $250,000 in small but growing companies. The firm looks for interesting products with compelling markets where early capital will provide a clearly defined jump to the next level. Syneptics seeks opportunities where its principal can be returned in 24 months or less. Syneptics invests primarily in new technologies. Syneptics is primarily the venture financing vehicle for Bill Orabone, a veteran of four successful technology startups which have resulted in over $400 million in exit valuations: Memcor (microfiltration); Harding Energy (nickel metal hydride batteries); Intract (manufacturing equipment); and Lion Compact Energy (dual graphite batteries).
