About FOM

Rethinking Venture

Founded in 2013, Force Over Mass Capital (FOM), is the first Venture Capital firm to apply a process and data-driven approach, combined with unique regulatory and financial innovation in managing investment positions.

Since then, Founder & CEO Martijn de Wever has continued to bring his twenty years of experience in trading complex markets at the largest global banks to venture investing. Over the past 10 years, he has simultaneously built the fast-growing Fintech company Floww, the private markets infrastructure platform that specifically addresses obstacles in Venture Capital, from governance and reporting to seamless transaction execution.

FOM has evolved in two key stages. The first was to establish its proprietary method of investing, combined with building out firm-specific financial innovation. The second was to prove that the model works for all private market investors, from individuals to large institutional investors.

FOM is now ready to embark on its latest streak of innovative success: enhancing the proven method of investing with tomorrow's technology. By building out structural innovation, FOM is laying the foundation to bring liquidity through greater connectivity among existing and new players in private markets.

What is unique about FOM's third phase of innovation is that it opens up connectivity between private market investors. Given the latest macroeconomic backdrop changes, now is the best time to introduce structural improvements to the venture industry. By making the market more compatible with new investors such as Pension Funds, FOM's new funds combined with Floww’s infrastructure enable investors to benefit from Secondaries by Design.

Transparency and data accuracy are fundamental building blocks to any functioning, trustworthy market. FOM investors gain unprecedented access to the most in-depth financial insights for each underlying investment. Never before have private market investors had one central, accountant-verified, real-time source of information for each of their investments.
Force Over Mass is pioneering improved liquidity in the private market. After years of development, FOM investors will benefit from having all positions fully compatible with new liquidity mechanisms, including the upcoming Intermittent Trading Venue announced by the London Stock Exchange.
In private markets, achieving liquidity is intricately tied to maintaining control. Our funds empower investors with tailored control features on a global scale, enhancing investor engagement and bolstering security. This ensures that an even broader spectrum of investors, from retail investors to pension funds and their underlying clients, can now access a regulated infrastructure.
