Founders We Look for
-
The team is everything. We look for founders who complement each other, communicate openly, and have the resilience to navigate what’s ahead.
-
We’re drawn to founders who have done the work to truly understand the problem they’re solving: who their user is, what they actually need, and why existing solutions fall short.
-
We want to see that impact isn’t a marketing layer, or totally forgotten, it’s baked into the business model.
-
Revenue, users, partnerships, or clear validation that the market is responding. We do need evidence that something real is happening.
-
We invest in founders who are confident in their vision but genuinely open to feedback. The best builders we’ve backed have been willing to ask hard questions of themselves and evolve as their company grows.
-
We have deep roots in both Silicon Valley and Europe, and we bring that network to every investment. Founders with ambitions that span both geographies , or who could benefit from that bridge, are a natural fit for us.
We want to hear from you.
