The majority of the funding will be primarily injected into Web3 companies within TGV\u2019s portfolio, while the remaining will be used to invest in late-stage Web3 opportunities. <\/p>\n<p>TGV previously invested in numerous Web3 initiatives using a base fund dedicated to the late-stage Series A, B and C across three business verticals: entertainment and gaming, financial services, and artificial intelligence. Prominent TGV investments include The Sandbox, Animoca Brands and Forge, among others.<\/p>\n<p>Du\u0161an Stojanovi\u0107, one of TGV\u2019s 15 general partners, shared his thoughts on investing during the bear market:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt is much easier to see more clearly who the winners are now. This has created a high level of confidence amongst our investors.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Stojanovi\u0107 also shared that\u00a0market correction helps to select the strongest players as he advised fellow VCs to continue investing in crypto businesses:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Regardless of the market situation, there are always good teams having great products at the proper time.
