• INVESTMENT TIERS

    Three levels of support

    ANGEL ADVISOR

    It all starts here. Open and flexible, we chart a path together toward your goals. We help build your dream team, advance your product, line up clients, even get into a traditional accelerator. Whatever helps you get unstuck and move forward.

    SEED RAISE

    Sometimes it's best to skip accelerators go straight to investors. We help identify the right investors, draft emails, prep materials, coach you before meetings and help you negotiate your seed round at the right valuation.

    CO-FOUNDER

    If we really love working together it may happen that we become fully invested as your co-founder. This can make sense especially for solo founders or first time entrepreneurs who need a deeper level of involvement from our team.

  • OUR PROCESS

    Elaborated over ten years of experimentation and still evolving.

    1

    Be present

    We try to be present in our conversations, relationships and surroundings. It may look like we are not working.

    2

    Read the waves

    Markets are like waves. We study patterns carefully, the size, the movement and the other surfers.

    3

    Date your ideas

    Don't marry them yet, just get to know them. What exactly do you like about them? Is this the right idea for you?

    4

    Align the team

    Life goals, energy, problem solving and capacity to learn. These are some of the things we consider important.

    5

    Make something

    A prototype is anything we can build that helps us better understand a user or problem or need. 

    6

    Enter the market

    Timing is not important, it's everything.
