It was founded to invest family office funds, primarily from Europe and Middle East North Africa (MENA) region, in US alternative assets (Private Equity and Real Estate). In our investments we sought - and still seek - unique ways of delivering returns by creating investment opportunities designed to meet risk/reward goals.
During these past three decades we have acquired a range of assets mostly in Private Equity (middle market companies). The assets covered nine industry sectors and represented several hundred million dollars in transaction value. To achieve these returns across diverse assets, we developed acquisition strategies to acquire a balanced portfolio of assets, while seeking the highest returns.
Throughout this multi-decade period, we successfully adapted to changing domestic and global investment environments. During challenging market conditions, we have held firm within flexible guidelines. But when the economy prospered, we took off. Our long term track record rests on a breadth of expertise, long standing experience, nimble investment strategies and excellent management teams.
We have had a long and successful investing relationship with Fieldston Investors and are co-investors and board members in a number of transactions. Fieldston Investors is a leading PE financial sponsor that was started by Jim Needham in 1989.
We remain focused on our Private Equity business and are seeking opportunities that match our acquisition criteria.

Using our valuation calculator is more reliable and less time consuming than using traditional valuation methods.
Our AI-Powered tool is based on globally recognized startup valuation methods that were devised by investors to get valuations for early stage startups.
Our qualitative valuation methods:
1- Scorecard Valuation Method.
2- Checklist Valuation Method (Berkus Method)
3- Risk Mitigation Valuation Method.
4- Step-up Valuation Method.
In comparison to the old ways of early-stage startup valuation that depended on valuation excel templates, discounted cash flow, and valuation spreadsheets, Startup Falcon's valuation calculator automates the pre-money valuation calculations by quantifying the qualitative aspects of the startups to arrive at a more reliable startup valuation that is going to be taken seriously by VCs, investors, incubators and accelerators.

To create the world's largest private investment network, Unimo uniquely combines:
1. Independence as an introducer; Unimo is not a broker, or an investor, or an investment advisor.
2. Global technology platform to create efficiency scale, and access.
3. Common approach standardising the investment process for members, wherever they are in the world.
4. Due diligence model providing validated, comparable and unbiased data.
5. Local offices in key markets delivering a global service combined with locally accessible expertise.
6. Transparency in a secure environment with standards based on those of public markets.
7. Selected companies with a net positive impact on the planet.
8. Filtered opportunities based on each member's personal preferences.
9. Unique investment and philanthropy platform in the same place.
10. High ethical standards and individual privacy.
