The San Francisco-based venture capital firm, Andra Capital, is planning to issue its own Silicon Valley Coin (SVC) via a Security Token Offering (STO).

Andra Capital Partners With Tezos To Issue SVC Token
As reported earlier today, the California VC company will work with the Tezos Foundation to ultimately launch the Silicon Valley Coin. To do so, Andra Capital will utilize TokenSoft’s issuance platform.
The firm’s open-ended technology fund, commonly referred to as the “Fund,” will mainly use the SVC to invest in late-stage, private tech companies. Furthermore, the new token will also provide the investment opportunity for “qualified purchasers in the U.S. and permitted investors around the globe.” Additionally, investors will be able to take delivery of the blockchain-based SVC.
According to Sam Raman, Head of Strategic Partnerships at Andra Capital, his company is employing the best of both worlds with TokenSoft and the Tezos Foundation:
“The TokenSoft platform provides the technology for qualified retail investors to participate in desirable, late-stage, pre-IPO technology venture companies, and we have partnered with the best-in-class providers including the Tezos Foundation for its expertise in digital securities for the Silicon Valley Coin offering.”
Alison Mangiero, the President of TQ Tezos, also spoke about the collaboration and the forthcoming product. She said that they are “thrilled to see venture capital firms embrace digital securities, which allow them to easily and compliantly offer global investors access to a historically exclusive asset class.”
