We're funding and founding the future of commerce

Scroll

Portfolio

We’ve been there before and are still in the game

Collectively we’ve founded, scaled and exited multiple companies in commerce. We understand business building in this space from experience.

  • Sector focus

    Commerce Enablement (software companies that serve brands, retailers and adjacent businesses in the commerce ecosystem)

  • Check size

    $500k - 5M

  • Portfolio construction

    We are building a concentrated portfolio of world class companies

    With every single investment we make, we want to have REAL skin in the game. It is our goal to help increase the probability and magnitude of success for every single portfolio company. We can’t do that effectively with 40 companies. We probably can’t do it with 30 companies. So each fund is focused on investing into 15-20 companies defining the future of commerce. Then, we get to work.
