The SECWAYS Scout Program is a scouting relationship for people who source startup investment opportunities for SECWAYS. The organization describes its intended audience as well-connected people who are passionate about startups and believe technology can improve the world; these are audience descriptors, not stated formal eligibility rules.
Scouts are asked to look for founders they know personally and make warm introductions, rather than send pitch decks as an end in themselves. SECWAYS describes an application and, for accepted scouts, a short letter of understanding. Scouts then submit decks regularly; SECWAYS reviews submissions and may request an introduction after an initial screen.
SECWAYS states that it pays $2,000 for each deal presented by a scout that SECWAYS invests in. The published page displays a dollar sign but does not specify a currency code. It does not establish a fixed term or workload. The inspected page displayed an invitation to apply, but current intake availability was not verified.
