Growth Partner

We're a startup investment firm focused exclusively on the pre-seed stage. With a portfolio of 600+ pre-seed investments and growing. Pre-seed isn't our farm system; it's our bread and butter. It's all we've done, all day, every day, since 2012. We focus on US and Canadian companies. We do make some investments in Western Europe, Israel, and Australia, typically via accelerators or other partners. We strive to treat founders the way we would want to be treated. We don't waste time. If we're not going to invest, we say so as quickly as possible. If we are going to invest, we just get it done without delays.

At a young age, I had a paper route where I had to get up at 6 am everyday to deliver newspapers, rain or shine. I learned at an early age that customer satisfaction was a critical factor in my tip for the week. If I was late or missed a house, I did not get rewarded. Over the past 20 years, I have lived by this simple philosophy: -Listen to the what the customer needs -Try to deliver to their expectations -Ensure they are happy along the way Simple words with a huge impact.
