I'm sceptical this topic meets notability standards, particularly WP:NCORP. The only thing that's preventing me from raising an AfD discussion is the regular report which Space Capital produces - it seems to be seen as authoritative and often quoted in the scientific press. I'd be interested in other opinions. Sionk (talk) 01:18, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Chadson space - you seem to have used the wrong edit request template here. "Edit Semi-protected" is for pages with elevated page protection levels. (Which this one isn't.) You're looking for "COI Edit Request." More info: WP:ER. PianoDan (talk) 17:01, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Revise the second sentence and replace the references to:
Space Capital is the parent brand of Space Angels, an online investment platform, and Space Talent, a career platform and central node for jobs in the space economy.[4][5][6][7]
History section:
We are proposing a new section after History called Publications. Move current paragraphs #2 and #3 from History under the new section Publications (placed last on the page). That concludes the content for the new Publications section.
For the History section, please insert the following paragraphs and references prior to the current opening paragraph:
Originally founded in 2007 as an angel investor network, the firm’s scale was limited by its informal structure.[8]
In 2012, Chad Anderson became CEO and by 2015 transitioned Space Angels away from the decentralized investing model typical of angel networks, which Anderson claimed was “inefficient at best, dysfunctional at worst.”[8] In 2015, Anderson re-founded the company and launched its first special purpose vehicle (SPV) fund.[8][9][10]
After inserting the above paragraphs, the current opening paragraph should now be the third paragraph in the section. Update the text and references to:
In 2017, Space Capital[8][11] launched its first institutional venture capital fund of $16 million, with Tom Ingersoll joining as partner.[12] The firm has since grown to three funds and over $100 million under management.[13][14][15] Their investments are focused on space-based technologies such as GPS, geospatial intelligence, and satellite communications.[16]
Remove the Satellite Today reference from the last paragraph in the section that begins “On May 5, 2020…”
Update the last paragraph to:
In 2020, Space Capital formalized its brand architecture with Space Capital as the parent brand and Space Angels, an online angel investment platform, and Space Talent, a career platform and central node for space industry jobs, as its sub-brands.[6]
