The Winning Together Fund (WTF) is a Venture Fund that places a strong emphasis on community-building among investors and seeks to democratize access to alternative investments. Specializing in early-stage tech startups, WTF is known for writing checks ranging from $25,000 to $50,000, with a portfolio that includes diverse verticals such as SaaS, remote work, edtech, fintech, insurtech, and web3. They target gritty founders exhibiting a strong founder-product fit, early traction, potential for high growth, and indicators of product-market fit, while focusing on products that they would personally use or see value in for businesses. The fund operates on the principle that winning together is more rewarding than doing so alone, thus aligning investors' goals and allowing for collaborative success celebration and support during challenges. WTF aims to lower entry barriers that traditionally restrict access to private investments, encouraging the spread of wealth through participation in sectors including tech and crypto. The fund fosters a cooperative approach through an active Slack channel for LPs, quarterly LP Zoom calls, and unique NFTs to represent LP membership, signifying the fund's community-driven nature. Operating beyond the scope of a traditional fund, WTF leverages its LPs' collective network and expertise to enhance deal flow, due diligence, and portfolio company support, thus providing more value than independent angel investors might offer. Victor, the founder and general partner of WTF, is a serial entrepreneur engaged in various ventures and a crypto enthusiast who seeks to use the synergy of the community to make impactful investment decisions and generate wealth. WTF currently aims to invest in 20-30 early-stage startups over a period of 12-18 months, following a capital deployment timeline starting from November 2022, with a minimum investment threshold of $10,000 for interested parties.
