VIV SERVICE · DEDICATED WORKSPACE

Wanting liquidity does not make the shares liquid. Test the real pathway.

Assess whether founder or early-holder shares have a realistic, compliant liquidity pathway.

LIQUIDITY · FULL SERVICE WORKSPACE

Founder / Early-holder Liquidity

Assess whether founder or early-holder shares have a realistic, compliant path to liquidity.

Why this matters

Secondary liquidity depends on rights, company alignment, buyer appetite and clearing price—not simply a shareholder's desire to sell.

What VIV does

Verify seller ownership and instrument
Map ROFR, consent, lock-in and transfer constraints
Estimate realistic clearing range
Identify appropriate buyer classes
Coordinate a permissioned process with legal / regulated specialists where required

Output

A decision-ready evidence pack with verified facts, unresolved unknowns, recommended action, owner and next decision date. Where relevant, the output routes into another VIV workspace rather than ending as a report.

Boundary

Private, contextual and permissioned. No mass distribution, guaranteed financing or transaction, and no substitute for regulated legal, tax, valuation or investment advice where required.

INTERACTIVE SERVICE AUDIT

Run a first-pass Founder / Early-holder Liquidity audit.

Give VIV enough context to identify evidence gaps, decision risk, the measurement baseline and the next workstream.

Interactive audit engine

The engine asks only the facts needed for this service, identifies missing evidence, gives a first-pass diagnostic and routes the user into the relevant VIV workflow. It is not a generic lead form.

Why this service gets stronger with every completed mandate.

Secondary-price evidence

Indications, failed processes, negotiated discounts, rights constraints and completed secondary outcomes create a more realistic view of where private holdings may actually clear—not merely the last financing price.

Rights/blocker pattern memory

ROFRs, transfer restrictions, board/founder consent, information gaps and other execution blockers are categorized so liquidity feasibility can be assessed before a buyer process consumes time.

Company/family alignment context

The history of shareholder objectives, company preferences and transaction constraints helps structure liquidity pathways that are less likely to fail because key stakeholders were misaligned.

Two situations where Founder / Early-holder Liquidity becomes useful.

USE CASE 01

Founder partial secondary

A founder wants limited personal liquidity without destabilizing the cap table. VIV assesses ownership, transfer rights, company alignment, buyer type and realistic pricing.

USE CASE 02

Early employee / angel exit

An early holder wants to sell shares after several rounds. VIV reconstructs rights and dilution, estimates a likely clearing range and assesses whether a compliant buyer process is realistic.

CASE STUDY · ANONYMIZED

Testing whether a secondary was executable

An early holder wanted liquidity and initially framed the problem around the price achieved in the company's previous financing. VIV began with ownership and transfer rights, then considered company alignment, buyer appetite and a realistic clearing range. The process clarified the conditions required for a transaction to be executable and prevented the holder from treating an accounting reference point as a guaranteed market price.
