We invest early in people with deep conviction in great ideas…

We are comfortable with the rough edges of a new project. This comes from investing early. We help founders from day one. We are a high conviction investor and lead investments even if no one else gets it. But talk to our founders, they will tell you better than we can.

Seed is a critical stage in a company's development. Moving quickly and effectively from hypotheses to validations is something we understand well.
