technical diligence memo for investment committee
Intent: informational
Lead with conclusion, then evidence
IC readers need a decision-oriented summary first: conviction level, key risks, and recommended follow-up actions.
Detailed technical evidence should support the conclusion, not bury it.
Separate verified facts from assumptions
A useful memo clearly labels what was observed directly and what remains inferred from limited access. Clarity prevents accidental overconfidence.
This separation also helps partners prioritize post-investment monitoring.
Link findings to valuation sensitivity
Technical findings should map to upside durability or downside risk in concrete terms. This makes diligence economically relevant.
When risk is quantified, IC discussions become faster and sharper.
