Refresher on Adro:

This investment opportunity is in the pre-seed round of Adro, a virtual banking platform targeting a) international students studying in the US, b) international visaholders working or participating in exchange programs in the US, and c) foreign businesses looking to set up bank accounts in the US. Founded by veterans of Amazon, Mastercard and Uber (two of whom are Cornell MBAs) and started at Cornell Tech, the company launched its platform in September and has already signed up 1,500+ accounts from 100+ referring institutions (colleges, corporations, etc), and has a total of $1.8M in deposits.

Our allocation is $250K of a $650K financing, and the minimum investment is $2000. If you'd like to learn more, please review Adro's public deck.

Refresher on the AngelList process: 

The above AngelList link will allow you to join the Red Bear Ventures syndicate on AngelList, where you will be prompted to set up an investor account (if you do not already have one).

From there, you can review the Adro deal specifics and choose whether or not to invest. All commitments must be made by 12pm ET next Wednesday December 18th.

If you choose to participate, you will be prompted to a) submit evidence of your accreditation status to AngelList and b) fund your AngelList funding account to fund your commitment. These steps must be completed by 5pm ET next Friday December 20th, at which point the syndicate will be locked.  

More detail on the accreditation process can be found here. If you have any questions as it pertains to the AngelList-specific steps outlined above, please reach out directly to the AngelList LP Relations Team: lp-relations@angellist.com.

If you have any questions about the company or the investment opportunity, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

Thanks,

Dan and Gus
