Determine who owns or influences the problem you solve. A fund investing in the company may not know that person, even if it has a board relationship.
Look at publicly documented roles, prior employers and professional affiliations. Confirm identities and dates. Do not infer a personal introduction path merely from co-investment or portfolio membership.
Bring the investor the target name, evidence and proposed reason to meet. Ask for confirmation, a correction or a better route. Some relationships may be confidential or unsuitable for commercial use.
Provide an editable note, agree the approach and record the introduction outcome. Share appropriate feedback while protecting sensitive buyer information.
Orbb can support this research and coordination. The useful map explains why a path might exist and what still needs validation; it does not treat a fund's portfolio as a list of people who are obliged to speak with you.
