Dauntless Fund

What is Dauntless Fund?

Dauntless Fund is an investment fund focused on providing seed and Series A financing to innovative consumer-facing companies that can leverage the influence of brands, athletes, and celebrities to accelerate their growth. The managers of Dauntless Fund have a history of entrepreneurial success, having founded, led, and successfully exited companies themselves.

With a background entrenched in the overlapping arenas of sports, entertainment, and technology, they bring a unique and comprehensive perspective to the investment table.

Their experience includes not just guiding companies as CEOs, but also understanding the cross-sectional industry dynamics that can help a startup stand out and succeed. A prime example of their approach is the recent Series A investment in Wedge Buster, a sports-themed social gaming startup, which secured $2.2 million with the help of co-investors including NFL quarterback Drew Brees and professional skateboarder Rob Dyrdek.

Through investments like this, Dauntless Fund showcases their commitment to nurturing startups with the potential to disrupt the market and create new consumer trends, especially those at the intersection of technology and widespread consumer appeal. They look for teams with vision and the capacity to execute, and in helping these teams succeed, Dauntless Fund seeks to generate significant returns for their investors while contributing to the growth of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
