Funding requirements

We invest in early-stage, founder-led companies solving complex problems in AI infrastructure, GPU compute, fintech, SaaS, automation, defense, space, and deep tech. Our model combines last-in seed capital with rapid hiring, helping founders close their rounds and build high-performing teams within weeks. We back companies where technical execution and talent velocity determine success, typically scaling from 10 to 50 employees and moving from prototype to commercial traction.
