We are proudly vertical agnostic and anti-thematic. We like being surprised and love making contrarian bets. We target initial investments of $25k-$100k but will go as low as $10k if a round is oversubscribed. Why? If we love a founder, we want to be involved, and by being a great partner, who knows, perhaps we will earn the right to invest more in future rounds.
