Thesis

Funding requirementsWe invest in overlooked teams. We believe enduring companies can be built anywhere, by anyone. We lead seed rounds before it’s obvious, and serve as active, operationally-involved partners during a company’s earliest days. We've funded toys, rebuilds, spin-outs, un-scalables, small TAMs, and unproven founders.
