and IN4X
Investors
At IN4X, we bridge the gap between high-growth potential and structured protection. Capital is raised under private placement exemptions, with investors subscribing for Preferential Shares in IN4X (Pty) Ltd.
While the investment is recorded as share capital in IN4X, the Company allocates these funds into regulated instruments through licensed Financial Services Providers (FSPs). This ensures that investor principal is safeguarded in compliant structures, while IN4X itself remains a founder-driven incubator vehicle and not a bank, collective investment scheme, or financial services provider.
How IN4X de-risks early stage investing
All returns flow through strategically domiciled SPVs for tax efficiency, with quarterly reporting, milestone verification, and governance oversight. Investors gain predictable transparency, a clear 5-year exit horizon, and diversified exposure through a carefully curated portfolio of ventures.
Tax-efficient and transparent delivery
Structured upside
Returns are realised through a dual-path structure: either a pre-agreed fixed multiple payoff or equity conversion at Series A valuations — whichever delivers the greater return. Investors benefit from both downside protection and upside optionality.
Milestone-based release
Funding is unlocked in disciplined monthly tranches, tied to objectively verified KPIs. This keeps founders focused on execution, while protecting investors from premature or misaligned capital deployment.
Deployment only from interest yield
Instead of exposing the full principal, monthly startup funding comes only from the yield generated — preserving investor capital while driving venture growth.
Principle in secured assets
Investor capital is placed in low-risk, yield-generating instruments administered by licensed FSPs. This ensures the principal remains safeguarded and outside of startup risk.

Structured upside
As portfolio companies reach Series A, you realise returns through a dual-path structure: either a fixed multiple payoff or equity conversion at Series A valuations - whichever delivers greater value. This provides clarity, flexibility and venture-level upside without full angel-style risk.
Transparent governance & reporting
You receive quarterly reporting, milestone verification and governance oversight. Preference shareholders may also appoint a board observer, ensuring transparency into incubator and accelerator portfolio companies.
IN4X's return structure
At IN4X, investor returns are defined clearly from the start. Each participation is structured to provide:
-
Principal Safeguarding: Your committed capital is placed in low-risk, regulated instruments via licensed Financial Services Providers (FSPs).

Structured Upside: Returns follow a dual-path model — at exit you receive the greater of:
-
a pre-agreed fixed multiple payoff, or
-
equity conversion at Series A valuations.
-
This ensures you benefit from venture-level upside while retaining the protection of a defined floor.
