Hampus Jakobsson

Co-founder and General Partner, Pale Blue Dot

About

Hampus Jakobsson is a climate-focused venture investor at Pale Blue Dot who uses fiction and science fiction as core tools for investment judgment, treating literary novels as mental simulations for understanding founders and future systems rather than relying solely on business analysis. He deliberately seeks extraordinary people with unconventional career paths over polished profiles, testing whether he'd trust founders with his kids and building unusually intimate relationships where he shares internal investment memos during diligence and maintains WhatsApp-level communication.
