The EDA Fund Doubles Investment in the Diamond Point Co Development Fund

Saratoga Springs, NY, December 24, 2016 --(PR.com)-- The EDA Fund, the hybrid venture capital/private equity/investment bank fund created by Autonomy Distributors’ successful exit of their international export operations, has made its first investment into Diamond Point Co-Development Fund to guarantee its deal pipeline into the future.

Nick Mathius of EDA Funding’s CrowdBuild Division explains: “Our investment board believes that the Diamond Point Co-Development Fund offers us the best downstream pipeline for our future investments and further ties our fund to its goal of being a full, business-lifecycle solution. By doubling the existing fund created in 2013 by Robert Manasier and In Focus Brands, we are guaranteed quality companies that are operationally-ready for our fund to next-level partner with and accelerate. We are a product of the Diamond Point experience and want to be part of their billion dollar portfolio strategy which we see as very attainable and creatively practical.”

Diamond Point Co-Development Fund was the initial funder for EDA Funding’s parent company, Autonomy Distributors. Diamond Point Co-Development Fund and In Focus Brands were responsible for the 2014 launch and subsequent 2016 sale of Autonomy Distributors. The EDA Fund and CrowdBuild ™ were created from this exit.
